fozziwozzi Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 very tank nice well done! i have never kept rainbows before but am interested in starting, are they hard to keep? what are your experiences with them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbuna Posted February 11, 2004 Author Share Posted February 11, 2004 thanks fozzi. i set this tank up in north queenland. this type of rainbow (utchee creek rainbow) were wild cought in a nearby creek (along with the other fish in the tank) i saw them for sale at st george a couple of weeks ago. I have found them to be very easy to care for. i fed them crushed pellet.they love water changes and seem to colour up more after one. these are kept in water with a ph of 8.1 hth Harry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
