    They are looking great

    What are the water parameters for the pair to spawn? (being they are wilds, do you do different than domestics?)

    Just curious


    Thanks
    Ardan

    I'll tell you what... for a group of wild type fish...These alenquer siblings of the albinos are really something....by far some of the most voracious eaters I have raised...and very uniform in size and shape..

    the albinos are beautiful but these alenquers are amazing...

    a few pics...

    I saw these fish on Saturday in person. They are awesome and hungry! Al simply put his hand near the tank and they swarm ants to honey. I didn't see a cull in the bunch... Really nice fry!

    They look like they were made with a cookie cutter. Very nice Al. Doesn't hurt that your albino's came from that batch either I bet.

    Al, they looked so healthy and consistent! Looking at all your current batches/frys I think you are facing a very, very serious situation lol...you will run out of tank space very soon! Maybe we can order tanks together? They do drop shipping!!!

    As always, keep up the great work!
