Thats great, how many rummys did you have originally to breed with?

38 neons and 11 rummys.

Excellent! Care to post your tank details that they bred in? Like Jon said... teach us!

Superb work!

Thats amazing, what's the parameters of the water they bred in?

I never measured them. My tank has dense grass. My tank water shows much yellow because I put drifts and humic leaves into tank. I live in Shenzhen, the southern of China. The original tap water is light acid and soft. I didn't adjust the water even breeding the discus.

No. It is only the rotted leaf soil for the normal garden plant. I always use the low cost methods for my planted tank.

No wonder, you have the good water, here in Southern California, we have rock water. And if you dont acclimate or soften your water, Rummy's are very fragile.

Grats btw, I am jealous.
