As always, good advice. Thanks again. I'll post if I get any action from these guys.

Larry, I have a group of 5 adults coming in tomorrow! Are these guys easy to sex or should I toss all 5 into the BB tank and let them duke it out? Are there any alternatives to the micro worms for the fry? I guess I ned to get on aquabid and start buying some different worm cultures.

Mats, I haven't seen a water report from our water company. They send out a water quality report every year but it deals with contaniment levels. (they are very proud that they are extremely low.) I would assume that my water could easily be high in sodium, since I live a stone's throw from the ...

My water out of the tap is 850 uS, gH 0, kH 8. I add minerals to bring the gH up to 2. I have not yet bred Plecos. My Discus, Rams, and Gouramis will lay eggs in this water but they don't hatch. For breeding I use straight unconconstituted RO. I know the uS should be close to 0 but it comes out ...

Mats, Thanks for the info. No, I didnot plan on trying to breed in a community tank. I have a seperate breeding room with tanks ranging from 10 gallons to 40 gallons where I house my various pairs. Right now I have Discus, Angels, Bristlenose Plecs, and Pearl Gouramis. This is where the Cory's woud ...

I keep most of my Discus on the low side of their range, 82 to 84. If the paleatus cannot tolerate this, I guess I need to look at the sterbai. I know the fish. I think they look cool.
My other consideration is ease of breeding. I understand that the paleatus are very easy. I'm not a catfish breeder ...

Hello All,
My name is Liz and this is my first post here. I raise Discus and other fish compatible with Discus. I don't have any Corys yet. I'd like to buy some breeding age long finned c. paleatus. Any one have any for sale?
Liz
