Update:
Well I live outside of St. Louis, Missouri and although I live on a large wooded property, all of us have 3-10 acers, there are no issues with wildlife. The most wildlife has done is the tree frogs spawn in the pools. Tadpoles for sale or trade or for cichlid food. The weather here is dreadful, it has been swinging from 60s at night and 80s-90s in the day. The fish can take the heat as long as you have plenty of air and when 100 degrees or over put a frozen milk jug in. The fish thrive at temps in the higher 80 range and tolerate lower temps perfectly as well. Here again O2 levels are the key.
If you really feel the need to snatch some fish go ahead and try, if the dogs don't get you I will. Just kidding, the dog run is about 25ft away from the pools and you couldn't even get close before they bark. I forgot to mention the deer drink from the pools at night.
Now for the how to FIRE SALE fish online? Glad you asked. I'll give you the answer once you buy 50-100 and as a bonus, if you buy now in the next 15 min, I won't care what type of fish they are. Actually this and several other forums and Aquabid keep the fish going out the door. I also sell quantity orders to people who flip them to local pet stores.
Time for the update, the first P-1 pool 6'x6'x12" has 16f / 6m Orchard Endlers, 3 pairs of Least Killies and will be getting 12 paleatus corys tomorrow. If all goes well I'll start filling the breeding trap with pineapple, pineapple tux, marigold and RREA swords, I plan to have 14-16 pre-hit females once completed. The other P-1 pool has 17f / 9m Black Bar Endlers, 4 pairs Least Killies and will be getting 12 Anues corys no later than Tuesday. If all goes will between now and Monday I'll begin to fill the breeder trap with pre-hit female platys until I reach 30-35 fish. The large P-2 pool 110"x72"x18" currently has 3 pairs Least Killies and 2 marble crayfish. Thursday, the pool will get another 12 Least Killie females. Tomorrow I will add approximately 15 female Endlers and 6 pure line males. This will be my Chilli Endler production pool. If all goes well, I'll begin to fill the breeder traps with Showa, Koi and Blk & White female swords. This pool will have 28-30 pre-hit females and should crank out fry like there is no tomorrow. If you figure low, 10 fry per female per month, I'll let you do the math. I'm just waiting for you to buy some of these hint, hint!!! I still have a 125gal vat-currently has thousands of tadpoles-and 175gal vat. I also have another P-1 pool I'm setting up for grow out with the vats.
I forgot to mention each P-1 pool has 2-3 Blond Endlers of the same color pattren as the primary Endlers. I will add approximately 8-10 more Blond females as I go. Thanks for reading and I'll check back once the swords and platys go in the pools
