SInce he doesn't have many fry, you guys probably need to get on a waiting list, that is what Barbie does. I think Raul-7 should get first choice

Why are you getting out of Hypancistrus, you are a very experienced breeder.

Jerms55555 lkives in Cal, he might have some fry he is willing to sell you

Great stuff INXS, i agree. My female L260 has odontode growth on her pectorals, and not as much in the interpecular.

COngrats, i had a pair this past summer for 7 weeks. And you know what, they spawned 7 times, always on the 7th day. But i never could get the eggs to not fungus. I put the ph to 7, and i took my C. Arcuatus out, and they still fungused, so i gave up.

Yes, i have read this myself. I am interested in something, is anyone else breeding their F1's yet. This post is very interesting.

Yeah, i think i may just add some anacharis and java fern or something. I know the QA's will get used to the light. They go on at 7 in the morning and off at 7 at night. I might not even do plant, but i want to know who has had good experience in breeding hypans in a planted setup.

They needd to be about 2.5 inches until sexing can be noticeable really good
