Care to share how's your setup like? Size of tank, filtration, tankmates, etc?

thanks bros!!

tank size is 2 x 1 x 1, those standard type.. only 1 sponge filter, water change once a week or fortnight..

used to have a pair of dwarf pike cichlids in there, but took them out as i'm worried in case they do spawn, the fries will become food...

Thanks for sharing.

This sounds really exciting.

Keep us posted on the progress of this happy family.

this first spawn is very small... so far total only found 6 of them, already free swimming..

worried they may not find the food, i've placed them in a nursery for now...

question - why do they not look like albino? they look like normal brownish catfish colour???

ROOT · 01-11-2007, 12:10 AM

they're only around 8-9mm long, but already shit alot!!

ROOT · 01-11-2007, 12:12 AM

cropped shots, do they look albino to you??

or will they get lighter as they grow, and the red eyes become more apparent??

I always feel so proud for the hobbiest who succeeds in breeding. It's a real high level of profiency and begs recognition.

Congrats.

Maybe due to the lower albino genes? Just guessing.

Baby poo-machines ahoy!
