Thanks for your input Ray, because i couldn't find any specific topic on this i decided to post one.

I know you can set up territories etc...but what i want to know who actually has bred more than one batch of zebs at the same time in the same tank.

If you have Ray care to share???

Artificial hatching of eggs

Hi guys, I was just wondering if any of you have ever tried hatching these guys from the egg stage? What i meant is once the females lay her eggs and the male fertilisers them, you strip the eggs and try to hatch them. If you have what kind of container/condiment/set up do u use to hatch these guys?...

Hi guys, If you are so worried about intestinal blockages you should do a salt treatment for your fish every 3 months. Its just like deworming your pet cats n dogs. I use it on most of my catfish even discus and they seem to have no problems. I use it as a short term bath so i use 30grams to 10litre...

Hi guys,

If that's for real then its a sad loss.... :cry:

To me the fish could still look fresh even when dead if you freeze them straight away in a container or tub then taking them out to thaw a bit then to photograph. I freeze all my prized fish for future references.

Cheers,
