Tank bred Amanos feeding movie
It's been about a month now since most of these Amanos have been in freshwater, some of the smaller ones are from a latter spawn... http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l199/zax1972/IMG_0025.jpg They are now 310 in number and are feeding on boiled lettuce (as in the pic), boiled dandy lion leaves and c...

Heres a good quality movie of the scene... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rs_uNuG-HWI All are fine today, once they become adults they b...

Thanks guys. Update on things; caught another 30 young adults today, bringing the total number of adults to 154, I found 3 in my freshwater nano planted tank yesterday. I had released 13 in there and assumed they had died, so there could still be others in there. Here is a 13.2 mb film of them in a ...

I'd like to increase the yields before I attempt to write an article but in the meantime I will just post updates. Today I lowered the water level again to see if any zoes had morphed and I managed to find five adults amongst all these... http://www.asfs71.dsl.pipex.com/am5.JPG When the zoes get clo...

Just to update things, I had one zoe morph into the adult form from the whole of the previous spawn :( which I then killed by reducing the salinity to fast :smt009 But on a better note, today is the 26 th day of my 3 rd spawn of which I have remaining 150 zoes aproximately. I decided to check if any...

Today was the 27th day and I have only 16 zoes left, all in the mysid stage. Also, one of the zoes has morphed into the adult form. It was very difficult to spot because after morphing they change colour and become almost transparent like the adults. I have placed it in brackish water now and it see...

I'm using mature water from my planted tank to make my sea water. I'm thinking of trying a minture protein skimmer, there are some that are air powered because I've had alot of casualties from them getting caught in the surface tension. This usually happens as the water thickens with phyto plankton....

Amano spawn
Lo guys, I'm new here and I've read all I could find on breeding Amanos especially Mike Noren's article and the French guy's. I'm at day 13 with the zoes at the moment, these are pics from day 10 (evacuated them at this point from the tank to another due to high nitrite levels; http://www.asfs71.dsl...
