Paretroplus menarambo: A Year in Review

[notho2000]

In December of 2012, my pair of Pinstriped Damba spawned for the first time. Here is a summary of the development of the spawn over the past year into beautiful young adults. I have kept about 20 to grow out ... my next generation. This species along with virtually every other member of the Paretroplus genus is critically endangered it's native Madagascar and on the brink of extinction.

Great vid, it's awesome seeing their progression from the parents to the fry to them becoming juvies.

You're very welcome Jim! If we could find a way to get them across the border, I would love to send you a group of my juvies

I agree with Laurie, good to document your attention to these fish for posterity. You and Duane make the best videos of these creatures.
