Breeding A. barlowi

[jose_vogel]

Two months ago I bought from Chris (Chris1932) 4 pairs of A. barlowi.

One week ago I saw 6 little critters swimming around one yellow female.

Parameters:
Tank: 20Lx20Wx16H (50cmLx50cmWx40cmH)
Fishes: 1 Pair of A. barlowi, 1 Pomacea bridgesii, 1 Nannostomus marginatus
Temp: 23º at night, 28º at midday.
Feeding: New Life Spectrum and enchytraeus (brine shrimp nauplii and microworms to the fry).
Sustrate: full of oak leaves
PH: 5.8
Conductivity: 294 (I think most of them tanins and humic acids).


I take out the father and now I see 4 fries.


I´m really happy.


I thanks Chris again.


What a little spawn!!! (I remember Ste12000 post about this)
