Used an old shop light I had sitting around instead of buying an aquarium light. Oscar has the whole tank to himself for grow out.
Looks like the fish room’s coming along. Are you planning to breed and supply your local fish stores?
In my other thread, I just received 6 juvenile cuban cichlids today in attempt to get a breeding pair. I'll worry about selling to lfs after the breeding happens. But I'm more interested in watching and studying the behavior.
In my nic/Costa Rican/Honduran tank, my female Nicaraguan and male cribroheros Longimanus have been hanging in a corner together for past 2 weeks and dug out a spot. Not sure if they will do anything but if they do, I will not sell hybrids to a lfs or anyone for that matter.
But the Cubans are first breeding project then I will do natural blue acara, (not the electric blue variant) and then we'll see what happens after. I'd love to do a mesoheros festae breeding project.
I’m working on raising up a group of festae right now to breed! Really the most rewarding and emotive cichlid I have ever had personally. Highly recommend. They have me thinking about trying my hand at umbees lol!!! Those Cubans are gorgeous, you should get a pretty pair no issues
