Thanks!

Rubysoho,

How on earth do you manage to have only 3 guppies in a 55 gallon tank? Do you harvest the young, or is there no place for them to hide?

rubysoho · 11-11-2005, 08:57 PM

haha, sorry, they are a livefood source for German Blue Rams which I will be attempting to breed (I was very succesful last spring but lost my female and haven't tried since). I finally dedicated the entire tank to breeding GBRs. Eventually, my goal is to have a very healthy strain of GBR's unlike many you find in [acronym:e2b2e9dd26="Local Fish Store"]LFS[/acronym:e2b2e9dd26]'s.

but I have had thoughts of scrapping that idea for now and going with all goldies... and then there is this flowerhorn who needs a home. *sigh* I just need more space and more tanks.

Oh yes and remind me to show your thread to my husband who complains about my 5 hopefully soon to be 6 tanks.
