Thanks for the swift reply Silurus - appreciated!

Hi,

I've seen C. Wotori for sale by a local distributor and cannot find anything on the web sites I normal use relating to a species of this name. Anyone got any ideas if it's new or just a 'new' name for a species already described?

Cheers.

Hi, Quick update... The 3 fry which hatched out are now feeding well from Infusoria and I have a Microworm culture on the way. They are developing quickly and are quite active, looking for food etc. The remaining eggs which were laid later did not hatch - probably infertile. I added some crushed ...

Thanks Mark I'll try to let you know how I get on!

A quick update for those that have helped with advice etc so far 2 eggs hatched in the main tank before I got home to move them - no sign of them! :x . Of the remain eggs I transfered to a jar, which sits in the 42L tank (with airstone), 3 have hatched and a couple (layed later) still remain. The ...

Thanks Mark/Neon I've got a 42L tank set-up 1/3 full of water from the main tank with heater and airstone. This is all I had available at short notice so I hope it'll be OK - it's amazing that you can't find suitable plastic containers. As some of the eggs are already darkening up (got 5 more last ...

Cheers Mark Looks like I'm going to have to have a go at taking the eggs out and try to hatch them. Would a couple of drops of Meth Blue be sufficient / appropriate for a shoe box sized container to stop fungus? I guess I'll also need to get a microworm culture from somewhere in a hurry! Thanks Buzz

Hi, After only 3 weeks of been in their new home my 4 Trilineatus have been spawning. I think due to their relative immaturity they have only laid 5-10 eggs over the last 5-6 days. The first ones laid got fungus but there are 6 remaining (2 from last night) which look to be developing OK. As well as ...

Cheers BigWard..certainly does. I'll drop him an e-mail once I have the tank ready.

Bigward,

Be really interested in contact details for this 'place' in Sunderland in that case.

Bigward/Barbie, No worries - thanks for the responses, Rainbows sound like a good addition - I might go for 4 (to start with)once I've sorted out my cories etc. Re L200 - I was speaking with a guy at Fish Alive in Durham a week or so ago about L#s (and others e.g. L255) and he said he might be able ...

Barbie, Thanks for your reply...I did try to do my research honest! I guess as I'm getting back into fishkeeping after a break of 3 years and changing to keeping catfish (rather than Mbuna) I got a bit overwhelmed with all the (excellent) info on this site.. My plans are now to go with the following ...

Hi, Someone tell me if I did something wrong here? I posted a topic to the ' South American Catfishes (Loricariidae - Plecos et al)' section titled 'Suitable Pl**o tank mate for LDA08 bristlenoses?' and so far had no responses. Initially my post was a generic question about compatibility and I had ...

Hi, I would like some advice on whether the following combination of would work (suitable) in a 48x15x15 tank. 2 x LDA08 Marbled Bristlenose (pair) 1 x L15 or L163 Initially the tank will house mostly cories and a the pair of bristlenoses. The tank is furnished with very fine gravel, bog wood and a ...
