Location code: Aquarium strain | | Water conditions: Neutral | Water temperature: 16-19oC | | Disposition: Very aggressive | Community tank?: Never | | Spawning Method: Peat (or similar) spawning substrate | Breeding problems: none | | Sex ratio: Roughly equal | Breeding difficulty: Very difficult | | Sucess: Very sucessful | Years Experience: 1 | | Other Comments: Need Large tank. Must be feed twice each day. Need a lot of time from the breeder to prepare large quantities of food, siphon large quantities of waste and replace a lot of water. Need a small tank of 20 - 30 L. filled with mixed peat (medium-powder and fiber) for breeding. Add Gambusia Affinnis for feeding is spectacular and specially good for adults health. | | Date this record created: 3rd March 2004 | Breeding date: 1st September 1996 | | Breeder: Jorge San Juan | Location: jstcynheretheinternetsimbolmi.madritel.es |
