Hey guys! These Microglanis (from ansina, rio tacuarenbo) were collected for me in Uruguay. I lost the notebook that had what was thought to be their species name. Any help? Also, looks like they are beginning spawning behavior, any suggestions/tips on this?

hmmm the pattern looks similar to these does that jog you memory??


Birger

my memory is completely failing me. I blame getting an office to keep me organized, now I cannot find anything.

Birger's response would be my guess on them. although having never seen the other species alive, i couldn't be definite

Do you have any for sale?

For spawning, I would make sure they have debris/leaf litter to hide among and just let them go. When my old microglanis would spawn, I would get like 5-10 fry without doing anything.

something I noticed that helped trigger was feeding ants our neighbor had some carpenter ants and I would collect 15-20 a day and throw them in there.

I just have a group. The females are positively ROTUND. I will toss some leaf litter in there and see what happens. Once I have babies, those will definitely be for sale. If I don't have success by Spring, I may list the group so someone else can have a go, as they are pretty cool fish.
