wazza Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 Frontosa grow out? Biotype? Pleco breeding facility? What are you going to do with it?! By the way. NICE WORK!!! Did you build that? And also, more pics please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazza Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 Actually a Pleco breeding facility might be a good idea. Oh well, its not up to me, i dont own it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest big bad burundi Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 It will also be housing my gibbicep plecostomus catfish along with my adult Burundi 6 bar frontosa colony's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazza Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 Nice stuff! You could chuck maybe 20 Gibbiceps in there and hope for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_Gun_Riff Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 dont they breed in long tunnels on the bank? that would be hard 2 replicate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon_Lord_Tia Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 with the water restrictions you will have to bath in the pond for a few days to make up for the extra water usage looking forward to seeing to end result top work daz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krichmond Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 good to see people actually completing that which we all daydream about Does it have a viewing window ? also wondering if you are putting substrate in ? well done ! kurtis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest big bad burundi Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 Nope no veiwing window ,and i wont be using substrate to start with either.It will be heated with gas heater already in shed.I have around 12 adult Frontosa and 12 juvenile Frontosa that will be housed in pond,along with 6 adult Gibbiceps plecostomus catfish.im sure there will be more than that from time to time in pond,after all all my glass tanks added together is only 2500 litres.This pond will be running around 4500 litre plus 400-600 litres of fluid bed filters also.
