Tank setup Baryancistrus beggini L239??

Post by 1walter9 »

hello,i have a aquarium now with spawn holes around 3 and 4 cm in diameter, do they spawn in caves and holes like L046 do?

Do they need some water stream that is aming to the holes like many L numbers need to spawn? If yes, can i do it with a stream pump?



Thanks for you time, W@lter

there is a really good thread buried in here with links to how a guy in france managed to get his to spawn. youll have to dig a bit, then run the links through babelfish, but there is a total wealth of information in there

good luck! id like to breed these little guys too.
