weitzmani fry

Post by syno321 »

I checked my tank housing my 10 C. weitzmani adults and discovered 24 eggs. Four appeared very dark (probably from a missed previous spawn, I'm going to blame that on the time of year)and have hatched out. Should the main spawn prove successful I'll report the specifics later.

My problem is not where to get them from, it's more "where do I get the money" ...corrently they are priced at approx. 200 Euros/250 dollars A PEICE on the lists I have access to.

...but it seems they are not too hard to breed, so perhaps the prices will drop with time.
Best regards,

200euro's is way over the odd's, my local shop has them in for £24. It would be cheaper for you to fly over here and buy them.
