Anyone have any success breeding these? I'm thinking about restocking the 110.

Cheers.

Are you looking for, or advice on breeding them ?
I started with 5 , I have quite a good colony of them now. I had them in a 20g high and they were breeding without any special assistance. Once their numbers reached around 20 or so I thing they got a taste for their own fry. I am slowly moving them to an empty 55gallon (catching them is REALLY difficult in a planted tank) .

I absolutely love the way these fish look.
I have never seen them in my LFSs though. Given the opportunity, I would love to have a school of them.

Congrats on breeding them Eleontie. :D
Good Luck Jim! Let us know how you do with them.

I've bred them by accident, removing hornwort to another tank and finding a fry...

Have maybe a dozen in a 30l, hope to increase it sometime actually, one of my favorite nano fish.

You would need about a 1000 to ever see then in a 110!

They have had them recently at Aquatic Obsession. I recently purchased 13 of them in the past few weeks.
