The RSG are swimming in one of my larger tanks. And I don’t think $110 is an over price. I had to pay normal price, no wholesaler price this time.

The last couple of days have been very nice weather in Sweden, temp of 30 out side. This has made my daphnia culture explode. After 4 week of rain then this, well started to work today that’s just typical after 4 weeks of holiday.

My RSG male (?) has adapted well to it's new home. The fish was I prime condition when a got it. More or less the dealer that fat the fish up, it came from the river tefe December last year. I gave the fish good water and loot and loot of live daphnia.

Well this movie is much to red. My Canon Power Shoot has that problem. But it’s still just fun to show something on the fish “live”. Well I get no really good photos. Get the right angel is impossble and the flash. I will take some photos with my real camera som day.

very cool video. you get an even better appreciation of this fish watching it swim. that's how most of the wilds i've had acted towards their domestic counterparts just a couple days after introduction. sometimes they get very dominating. awesome fish!

Well it started out very well; this RSG male was very interesting in my captive female. But after some days of fighting the female “tired” of the male and start chasing it around in the tank, No breeding there. It’s like this male from Novo Linda in Brazil, got this fish I 2 years ago and nothing has happened. The it all happened last night with a fish I borrow from a friend 300 km from me. Happy Yes :-)and No :-( all dispread after 24h lucky me ;).

Must correct something, sorry if I was not clear in my writing. That are only the male that are a wild the female is a captive. I was more to tell that when U except something to happen it don't. Then after 2 years. Sorry :-(

The second breeding went better. :-)
