golden_dase Posted June 22, 2010 Author Share Posted June 22, 2010 Thanks everyone, for the welcome! I didn't take those pics. They were taken by a friend (membername: RonnyM). All the above fish are in species tanks because I'm breeding them (or trying to!). The Red Capuz hasn't been very successful with their breeding...... didn't go full term with holding. The Yellow Collars have constant mouthfuls (got about 50 fry/juvies at the moment), and the Longipinnis are still too young. The Kendalli have put on a decent size and will probably breed soon (I'm hoping!). Just sold some tanks so I'm down to 12 tanks.. BUT.. I have 2 new 4ft racks coming with 4x 4x18x18 tanks.. These will be specialised Lethrinops racks! hehe! Cheers! Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
