congrats also, nice job.

I feed the fryes with peas, Tetra PlecoMin, Tetra Pro Vegetable I've just started to feed with JBL Novo Fect.

This looks promising

Same cave as last time, and i hope they will lay some eggs soon.

Thanks for the size answer.

The male is 120 mm and female 115 mm SL

After 8 weeks the biggest fryes are 35mm.

After I put the fryes in the feeding tank i only lost 6 fryes as i know.

How big should the fry be before i can sell them?

Thanks

Just remember that my pictrures can vary in color, this is becaurse I shoot every pictures with auto whit balance, and i think the environment also has much to say how the pictures finally is going to be. Some pictures are taken in front some in the middle. This changes the whit balance as well. As ...

After 5 weeks the biggest of 4 that i caught was 28,4 mm, so I will guess many of the biggest fry are over 30 mm in total length after 6 weeks.
But i can't say this for sure.

Fry 05.06.2010

Therer is nothing new to report.

Congrats

That is bad luck

I've used esHa 2000, hopfully they will make it.
Temperaure is about 29 degrees celcius.

There are still some of the fry that have a lage belly. What is the reason for that, can i do something about it?

Just a little update

Fry day 8


Today i moved the fry into a feeding tank.
I just don't know exact what too feed the fry with! And I need some help with that.

Is there some good food to use?

Fry day 5

Fry day 2 http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff314/Andreas216/Yngel-dag-2-1.jpg I counted 53 fryes last night. I found 4 dead fryes this morgning, so now there are 49 left. All the images are small, because i post the same pictures on 2 different forums. And the other forum has max wide of 500 pix

Hello again

There are some eager fry, that don't have time to wait for the right time to hatch.

Fry one hour old

6-8 days of waiting, I think I can do that. Thanks for the answer :) Janne: I think this is the safest way of protecting the eggs. Since this is the first time I have eggs on this fish, I don’t feel quite safe to let them be in the cave, I don't want the male to maybe eat the eggs. So this time I wi...

Thanks everyone

Finally I managed to get some eggs on my Hemiancistrus L-128 :D :D :D I have been waiting for this day over 2,5 years. I tried many different things like, simulate rainy season, a lot of water circulation and I bought a 900L aquarium, all this just to get some eggs on this nice fish. After trying a ...

Thanks

I have bought some more light so now i have 4 x 80 W.
I will see if i can get a better pictures of the hole tank. When i took this pictures i had only 2 x 80 W.

Thank you

All the stones are from the nice coast of Norway.
Some of the stones are very heavy. I've been out at the coast many times too see if I
can find some nice stones. Some of the stones are very nice it self.

After all of my hemies got carp louse, i took them out, because i need to catch them and take the louse off manualy. During that operation i took out all the wood, since i would be easyer too catch them. I asked my friend Håvard too help me, here is the result. I think the tank i quite nice :D it's ...

Very interesting, thanks for the information

Thanks for the link and boasting :D:D

I just love Altum, and i think that fish is much more exclusive than discus. If im not wrong altum is quite expensive as well.

Do the sand move much around with the powerfull currents? No the sand does not move much, in the right side of the tank there is a little movement, not much :D When i feed the fish i turn off both powerheds. When i turn the on after 2 houers, there is like a big explosion and the food is all over t...
