Wethumbs.... did you successfully breed your papagei?
If so did you have any pronlems and what were the water conditions and food did you dondition them with?

cheers!

They were fed exclusively live food. Successful spawnings only happened when the conductivity is less than 100uS. Otherwise, the eggs would not hatch. pH was usually around 5 and temperature around 78F. Typical spawn size was around 30 to 40. In my case, the progenies were skewed toward males (like 75%). They grew painfully slow. After over 6 months (more like 8 months), they were starting to show sexual dimorphic. Guess I found out the reason why they are so expensive.
