Location code: Aquarium strain | | Water conditions: Moderately hard and alkaline | Water temperature: 24-27oC | | Disposition: Very aggressive | Community tank?: Only with species of similar size | | Spawning Method: Other (see below) | Breeding problems: none | | Sex ratio: Roughly equal | Breeding difficulty: Average | | Sucess: Fairly sucessful | Years Experience: 1 | | Other Comments: These are actually pretty easy except that they are mainly herbivorous, they like their water green, and they need HOT water in order to spawn. They move their fins very quickly and are like little hummingbirds! They need lightly brackish water. We use 6 TABLEspoons of salt per 10 gallons of water. | | Date this record created: 18th February 2007 | Breeding date: 2nd January 2005 | | Breeder: KarmaFarm | Location: USA |
