Nice, thanks for the thorough, excellent replies! I think I am learning new important things from you. With (1) my present knowledge and experience (neither of which are much at all) and (2) the info you conveyed, I'd never expect such pond water to be good (in anybody's hands). thank you Thus, the...

are tilapia and puntius conchonius (Rosy barb) live? 180-200 sounds like a lot to me - are they really small? is there other fish in the pond? yes they are alive the tilapia, largest we get is 4", but not more than 40-50 of them, where as the puntius we get largest shall be 2"+ although i...

Nice!! Are these frozen and thawed shrimp? Shell-on? Is this a daily/weekly routine? A few glimpses of the overall pond view and setup plus some details (biofilter? pump? aerators?), etc. would be very exciting for me to see. thank you Viktor those are frozen prawns, which are thawed before feeding...

I'm pretty sure that the striped tail and dorsal is clearly visible at 3", yes. And being captive bred makes it more likely simply because these fish are rarely bred in captivity OTHER than as hybrids. There are many theories as to why they are producing hybrids rather than just producing the ...

That is indeed true, but even tiny ones have a striped caudal and dorsal fin, which your fish lacks. Also, most wild-caught S. decora are usually larger than 3", and whilst there may be someone breeding S. decora with hormones, the captive bred fish are likely to be hybrids. I'm pretty sure th...

Boy, you're going to have a lot of big ones when they're grown. Are they housed in different tanks? Any aggression? yeah i am gonna have quite a few monsters the sabaji, dekeyseria,the 2 royals, the 2 long fin bristlenose live in the same tank in a 50 gal the sabaji is the most aggressive one, but ...

[Mod comment: Done! --Mats] thank you Mats how big is that pond? (what are the dimensions as well) cool video and cats the pond is a little over 1000 gallons i believe the dimensions are its an irregular circle the shortest diameter being 9.5', the depth is 4'+ thank you Great video :thumbsup: than...

Those Syno decorus look like hybrids.... they are still too very small to be said for sure that they are hybrids, doesn't the dorsal ray grow longer after they reach 3"+ Same with ocellifer, too large membrane at outer barbels and ramification of inner barbels does not fit for ocellifer. the o...

could be the hemibagrus wyckioides or the hemibagrus wyckii
as both the fish at juvenile size look quite similar, only once they reach like 4"+ do the wyckioides start getting more red on the tail but the extended ray on the caudal comes early at 3" or so.
