System: 3x1.5x1.8 sponge filter and 600L power head filter wrapped in a stocking.
System was just sponge filters but pipe fish prefer a bit of fellow. Tank has 20 to 25 plants, potted and unpotted. Temp is kept at 26-29c with hang in tank heater. Lighting is a led unit with built in timer and sunrise sunset modes. 15% water change weekly with 48h+ aged water. Fed wrigglers, daphnia, and small shrimp, live only. Still don't have them on frozen food yet but they are very close.
First fry batch: About 40 fry
20 removed and placed in krisel and the rest left in breeding tank.
Day 4: Breeding tank = 5fry
Krisel = 16 fry
Day 8 Breeding tank = 0 (got eatin as new fry were born)
Krisel = 9 fry (had heater fail on day 7. temp droped to 21c)
New fry tank is a 50L 2fter and should help a lot to keep things more stable, as krisel is to small but has worked well for marine pipe and seahorse
