LEC 93/7 | | Water conditions: Very soft and acidic | Water temperature: 16-19oC | | Disposition: Somewhat aggresive on occasions | Community tank?: Never | | Spawning Method: Adult fish removed from tank | Breeding problems:
Skewed sex ratio | | Sex ratio: Somewhat male heavy | Breeding difficulty: Difficult | | Sucess: Fairly sucessful | Years Experience: 8 | | Other Comments: I use rainwater cut with tapwater: 75% rainwater. The tanks are dimly lit with oakleaves and peatmoss as a substrate. Anubias nana grows from a small amount of sunlight and light from adjacent tanks. Sometimes I scoop fry, put into container with tank water. I then add the 75% rainwater every couple days until the top of the container is reached. I only add water after they have eaten for a week. | | Date this record created: 13th August 2007 | Breeding date: 3rd January 2007 | | Breeder: Mark Delraso | Location: Indianapolis, Indiana |
