Virgin Red x Albino Red Melon

This actually was an experiment trying a small amount of hydrogen peroxide dosed daily after the eggs were layed to see if it would preent fungus/bacterial growth on the eggs. It was succefull, but limited. I have not yet tried with higher doses as I am afraid doing so would nuke the bio-filtration. A expected, the majority of the offspring were butt ugly and heavily peppered. I did keep a few of the nicer ones for use in a future cross.

Good work. I have just started with hydrogen peroxide. I have been using it in growing tanks through a difuser i made up. I am getting a DO meter soon so I can more accurately see what I am doing but have noticed that they seem more active and are eating more too. I started a post in the lab section with more details their if you wana check it out. Post is oxygen injection their is a fairly detailed PDF I found linked in their.
