Here's one for you throw all the formulas out cause they don't mean nuthin.
The first time Uwe Romer came to my place he came to get Juruensis that I
had, he brought elizabethae to trade. I had a bunch of the Jurus in a
growing tank, But I also had the KING APISTO of them all in a 29 gallon,
heavily planted tank in my bedroom.You can see this fish and this tank on
Pages 509,511,and 513 in the Atlas. Uwe wanted offspring of this fish to
take back, so we broke the tank down to get them. When we were done we had
counted 150 Jurus, fry and all!
