Female:

Thanks for any help...
Cheers, CatBrat.

Is it this?
Possibly this?

Great pics Catbrat

Did you ever manage to get a positive ID on the 'Crocodile' Whiptails ? I ended up with a breeding pair that have spawned a few times, but I still havent been able to decide on a positive ID. I have finally managed to get some fry past the 8 week period, so might end up with a small colony of them in a few monthes.

LFS (Organisms) has some whiptails labelled as 'Columbian' but only 2 and can't tell if a pair of not.

Thanks Jackster, they seem a pretty close mach to Rineloricaria fallax, but I will see if I can get some more pic's.

Im not too sure what the species the Crocodille Whiptails are, the closest I could come up with was something similar to Rineloricaria lancolata. Congrats on breeding them! My pair unfortunatly both got body tumours, after I saved them when their tank broke, and died. I haven't seen any in ages! Would love some babies at some stage if I could get my hands on them.

Does anyone know how long it will take for the egg's to hatch?

Cheers, CatBrat.

Here's the male today with his eggs...


Just thought that I will keep this up with pic's for the egg development, just for interests sake.

Cheers, CatBrat.
