THANKS for all the wishes!
humm, i dont heat the water, whatever the room temp is that is the temp of the water... and during the winter i dont keep the tank any higher than 78 as none of the loaches i have , clowns and kuhlis, are fond of extrme heat either....I dont know i am kind of old fashioned and a long time ago axelrod recommened 76-78 for loaches so always done that... in summer the room will get up to 81 on days when the ac is just doing overtime (days when it is over 95 outside)
my concern is the speckles on the tail fins...never sawn them on black kuhli's...and black kuhli's are not known for captive breeding at all...soooooo
i will continue to take pics...
thanks to all this is going to be fun watching the lil guys grow.....and yes i am looking for a 250 to eventually move them all to, but right now i dont want to disturb a thing...the clowns now that they have grown out a bit will be moved to a tank that has been waiting for them.in another 30 days.....and i will put in some baby clowns and a few more dwarf (sids) after that switch...i am looking for some now so i can have them quarantined a good 20 days..prior to any switches. so if anyone has any baby clowns or sids please let me know..i would like 4 of each.
i have been testing several ways of using ug filters for kuhlis and dojo's loaches and finally it appears i have got it worked out...
