My word! I wasn't aware there was anyone on this list other wise I
would of said something earlier. I put this list together a while back
before I got busy and totally forgot about it!
Wow, there are 5 members already!
Well, welcome Andrew and Albert and who ever else is there. I
guess this means I am going to have to go back to work on the list
and perhaps give more thought to a webpage...
I currently have a "pr" of L. occellatus "gold", a pr of daffodils and a
group of four Telmatochromis vittatus which has one very busy
female.
The vittatus have given me two brood already. They are shell
dwellers (my favourite...). her second brood's size was +/-35 fry
and was free swimming after 3 weeks. The tank's temp was 25oC.
pH>7 and reasonably hard (angelfish eggs frost over in the tank
from the Calcium deposits).
My fish are in 1.2 m tank which doubles as a fry raising tank so at
any one time there is a shoal of guppies, rainbow fish etc... I
currently have 30 boesemani and a small shoal of guppies with
slightly hagged fins. Everyone gets on fine. The vittatus is some
what aggro but never hurt anyone. The daffodils were another story.
They got too aggro for the tank and now live in the filter
compartment which constitutes1/4 of the tank. They still try to get
at the other fish thought the glass. They got on fine for a time but
then the male started excivating a cave... The female joined in and
an I jumped to move them before I had daff babies and a about 100
peices of rainbowfish all over the tank.
Winter than came... and my 300 W Tronic heater is not playing the
game (I don't recommend Tronic heater ever to anyone). I'm really
struggling to keep the water temp near 26oC so the daffs have bot
spawned yet much like every one else.
My affair with Tanganikans started with a pr of Neolamprologus
calliurus. They were swell and I sorely miss them.
Tanganyikan rock! and are almost better than killies.:-)
