Re: The challenge part 2

Hello,

what kind of filtration are you using in your breeding tanks? I just wonder what filter should I install to not disturb water surface too much.

Regards.

There is also something that looks like some sort of catfish in this tank (maybe it is just a guppy). Looks like Bunocephalus coracoideus or something like that. You may see it behind the filter inlet (it is mirroring in the glass) How this product could work? It blocks some sensores in fish or what...

Well,

mine are in my friend's tank since building a fishroom is much more difficult that I initially thought. So it will take next 2 months or even a little bit more to done it. But it will be almost perfect ;). Almost because it always could be a bit bigger :D

Re: Really OT - Train buffs here at all?

Hey,

what about for your brackish tank? It doesn't grow that big and is really interesting catfish :). Not so easy to find but I'm sure you will be able to purchase it somehow :).

Hope you will save this train station :). I love all old buildings :).

Re: breeding Synodontis polli

The barbel is forked will try to get a better picture...a bit odd
One of my WC, probably tanganyicae, has this kind of deformation as well. Barbel on other side of the head is however normal.
What about your polli? Is it symetric? :)
