They are beautiful

Nice collection....I so far have Lufubu "red" comps, gold head, black calvus and 1 white calvus.

Yep, these fish become addicting. I started with only a few and kept buying. Now I think I have too much.......

hehe nice comps and calvus.
mind telling you where you got yours and what prices?

i picked up the following from amazing betta last night
- 6x A. Calvus sp. kapampa
- 6x A. compressiceps 'Fire fin red'

they are just chilling out in a 10 gallon for now... they are still little guys 1.25" or so and god knows how long it's going to take before they breed LOL

They actually mature at a young age.

i've been reading a bunch of threads on other forums, and it seems they can breed in a year?

bud man - you seem to have quite a bit of knowledge on these guys. any information you can share on things like breeding size, foods, temperature etc?
thanks.

Calvus/comps grow about 1" in 6 months. Not all of them but most of them grow at this rate. Some females can breed at 1.5". My female orange chaitika comp had tons of frys at that size, the male was only 2". I keep my water at 76deg., feed them NLS pellets and once a week I feed them frozen bloodworms/brine shrimp. I also do weekly water changes of 30%.
Good luck buddy.....
