    The one with the hollow blocks is my shrimp tank. I breed Taiwan bees tibees snow whites and goldens. But it's mainly my moss and Buce grow out to sell. That was my male hongsloi 2, sadly he disappeared behind my dresser and I didn't notice until two weeks later. I have recently picked up a...

    Plants???

    My male disappeared. Now the hunt for another male begins. The guy at the Lfs said that all they had were females. But I caught a glimpse of one that had a black dot, but a shimmer of red in the dot. I'm hopeful it's a male as all there fish were still juvies at 1.3"

    Hongsloi breeding???

    This is true. Unfortunatly, we live with my in laws and do not have a heater or a a.c. But I do routine maintenance and checks on my tanks daily. So should there be a problem I'm home 90% of the time.

    Hongsloi breeding???

    I do realize that the female gets almost hyper aggressive after spawning and have room in a other tank to remove the male. I've bred cacatuoides and tri in a ten gallon successfully without any loss. 11.4 shouldn't be a problem. I'm using a 100watt heater because that's what I have on hand. No...

    Hey guys, I have a set feeding schedule for condition my tri. And it conditions them well and they have produced three batches of fry since having them.
