Hi everyone,
Thank you for your support in the past and I was
hoping to get more information. I have 12 Nijsseni fry from my first
clutch. They vary in size. Some are almost an half inch long and
some are 3/16 of an inch. I have them in a 2.5 gal with a sponge filter
and a 25 watt heater. They eat frozen shrimp and seem to be
thriving. What I'd like to know is when will I be able to sex them?
They all look alike. Should I move them
to a 10 gal to speed up their growth?
Should I acquire another pair to breed so
that I can pair off the fry from different fish or do I pair off the fry from
the same clutch? This seems to lean towards in-breeding in my mind.
I don't know how that works. If I did pair off the fry from the same
clutch,will this weaken the strain?
Also does anyone out there have a source in
MD,VA, or DC for female curviceps?
Thanks
Poppy
