@jac

Thanks Chris L. Much appreciated.

Thanks Eric

Here's an interesting article on the RB Line and a few videos of my Superwhites. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-1-L5-zzJwfi3GDC48AL3-_KAg_wOq78/view https://youtu.be/Neo0P6lxRSI https://youtu.be/tvnuRCf71H4 https://youtu.be/uYtje7mXQQY https://youtu.be/SN2QQ1S71QE https://youtu.be/RwYNXeT5fOU

Well done Marc. What a great achievement.

Chuffed = Pleased or Happy

@Chuck
I had 12, 8 and 10 eggs in the 3 clutches.

Temp - 29C
TDS - 120 to 150 PPM
PH - 7.4

Update:

I had my 3rd L280 spawn today (July 23rd) from the 3rd pair. Pretty chuffed about it

Sorry for your loss Eric. Thanks for sharing your unfortunate experience so other L280 keepers can benefit from it.

Hi Anna

1. What food are you feeding the L173 adults and L46 fry?
2. Is the food in paste form?

Thanks

Try using some IAL and a thin layer of sand in the fry box. I also don't feed my L134 fry for 2 days after the yolk sack is absorbed. Thereafter, I feed the Hikari First bites only for the first week.

Hi Ron,

Try adding a fine layer of sand in the fry saver, a piece of driftwood and a few IAL. I add small piece of driftwood in the egg tumbler too and hv noticed wigglers with egg sacks gracing on the driftwood.

My fry survival rate is very high now. Good luck.

Please PM if you have any for sale. Must be able to ship to Buffalo NY or Toronto Canada.

Thanks

Congrats

Congrats Eric, they are looking good. My 25 have settled in well. In their 40G long.

Here's a pic of a L280 taken today. The group is coming along fine.

@bekateen

You'll love these L280s. Love the bamboo caves.

Please keep us posted about your L280s.

A Pleco keeper in Japan who breeds L280s, keep them at 29C and TDS of 100 ppm

WC L280 (Micracanthicus Vandragti - from Rio Orinoco) import being acclimated. They are absolutely stunning fish and came in real healthy. Surpassed all my expectations. A big shout out to Freshwater Exotics USA for the outstanding quality, packing and overall service on my very first order. 2018051...

Someone I know in Japan (Katsu Ohkubo) has had a few successful spawns from his WC L280 group. His breeding adults are 4 cm.

Here's a pic of a spawn that Katsu shared with me.

Very nice. How do you manage to drop the food on top of the stone?

Thanks very much Eric

What is the ideal temperature for L280?

The stock that Shrimp Fever (in Canada) was selling were TR and came from the Far East. This confirms that they are being bred in Asia albeit in smaller quantities.

Shrimp Fever in Canada had many TR L280 not so long ago. They came in from Asia.

Another reputed importer in Canada will be getting WC L280 in a couple of weeks. Quite pricey at $150 each though.

Thanks very much Eric

Is this L397 a male or female and why?

Thanks

Thanks @MarinFlorin

How about from this pic Eric?
