I know of no such source. I wish there were for this and the other 2-bottle test, ammonia. One bottle always seems to empty before the other.

I'm concerned about moving the parents to what I assume is an uncycled new tank. Do monitor the water parameters on that one and do frequent large water changes. Did you jump start the cycle on the new tank by adding seasoned filter media from the older tank? Speaking of which, how long has the...

I agree with my colleagues. Mollies and Swordtials are not only different species they are in different genera and it is impossible for them to hybridize. Furthermore, as others have noted, there are no molly-swordtail hybrids in those videos.

Welcome back. Is there any commercial export of aquarium species from Surinam? It's one of the few locations for my holy grail Nannostomus species, N. bifasciatus. The other is the equally unfished Fr. Guiana.

Riffles. Good word.

Assuming we're all talking about the same thing, ceramic media goes in the filter not the tank itself. It needs water flow, as @jaylach stated, to be effective. Putting it in the tank will not do much good, if any at all. So there are no photos of ceramic media in a tank with a betta.

That depends on whether you want future matings between him and the Endler females. Given how well-formed the gonopodium is, there's a fair chance that has already happened.

Appears to be a late-maturing male. This happens in several livebearer species.

I've yet to see one that is not beautiful. Some are more vivid than others, but all are lovely. In terms of aesthetics, Nature was especially generous with this genus.

Yes, those are all remakes.

Welcome. The sources you are reading aren't providing you with good information. As @Colin_T said, and contrary to what you read, if you have a pair, the eggs will likely hatch. Not sure why it was suggested to separate parents. Remove them, yes, to prevent egg-eating, but there's no need to...

Love this film and it's not typical Svengoolie fare.

IMO you need a real cover or there will be desiccated hatchets on the floor.

What translation of the Cervantes are you reading? Amen to that.

Wonderful! Looks like you have a good gender ratio.
