u often keep fish with your slider paul112? ive heard bad stories of that. usually the fish are worse off, except with piranhas where the turtle will be missing a leg or a tail

use the search function

It never hits the right stuff on plecofanatics.

Great collection gollum. Sorry to hear about your bn. Do you still breed, and how big is your adonis??

 

[WyldFya]

Ok,
Q1. 1 small gibbiceps, about 2-3"
Q2. Gibbiceps
Q3. Gibbiceps (its the only one i own )
Q4. I had a small common, but my Red Eared slider ate it.
Q5. The small common one, the only one i have lost.

Humble beginnings can become raging obsessions.

haha that would be a bad choice on the part of the owner. That would be like taking a live rat slicing its side and holding on to it while you put it in the tank with your hand submerged.

Quite annoying isn't it. I usually just give up and do all my searches via fb.

thanks for your kind words Oscar 300
yes us aussies are dedicated due to the high price we pay and availability is not good
however recently more and more ppl are importing so prices and availability is getting better

and Wyldfya thanks also... my adonis is about 7cm not including tail and growing fast
Davo,I got all the L168's to breed them but nothing yet just started setup (4 ft )
also I hope to breed the royals they're only young though

I have heaps of breeding Africans;
Julie.d.chromis transcriptus 3 or 4 breeding pairs
elec. yellow,
red empress
alto. compressiceps... had 800 at one stage
a colony of 2 yr old 7 bar frontosas hopefully getting interested soon
a pair of polypterus endlicheri ... please please start getting jiggy wid it

how about you guys ... bred anything interesting? or unexpectedly?
I like to buy at least 3 or more (of the cheaper fish ) to keep the best or match up pairs etc... then you can sell back the others after they've grown a bit and recoup the cost

cheers Jason
