Journal keeping... 11th spawn of the year boys xD

Can't compare when I don't publish my methods. Literally the only people that know how I do things are a few breeders in Canada and 1 in Portugal. Recently I met a breeder out of Toronto that we also spent hours talking because he simply never heard of anybody doing things the way I do. As for...

True but Leandro isn't a researcher when it comes to these fish. he's a money maker for his university. but people idolize him for some reason which for the life of me I cannot understand... I don't hate the guy..he actually seems a very nice person but I wouldn't take his advice at all when it...

dollar for dollar savings...forget heat pumps think of a heat pump basically pulling air into the house at under the ground degrees so if under the ground you have temps at 10-15C for summer is great..it'll cool down easy winter? not so much you'll always end up needing an extra heating unit...

We've had this discussion before about Leandro...you posting a bunch of videos doesn't make him better than anybody else. ask someone to translate this part for you ---> <--- He doesn't hide it and he actually says in multiple videos how he had help and people setup his systems, teach him how...

I agree 200% with #9-#10 but my reasoning for growing them out in the same tank is not just because they grow faster. But also that other fish will eat the unhealthy ones. Think of it this way...if you have 10 fish that made it and 2 or 3 of those are "mentally challenged" by putting them in a...

Well I always loved these guys so when I got back to aquariums about 5/6 years ago after not having a single tank for years I decided I would find the way to breed these guys Did lots of research tried many many many things..killed also quite a few fish in trying stuff I've read of stuff other...

So I started to keep track of Zebra pleco spawns since the beginning of January to find out how many spawns they will do in a single year. Kind of like personal research... Right now I'm at 10 spawns and wondering if anyone here ever kept track throughout an entire year.

ramshorn snails, cherry shrimp fry and bloodworms if you don't like snails you can setup your tank with plants and lots of hiding spots and just get a shrimp colony of 20 shrimps or so everytime they have fry the puffers become hunters xD just make sure you have enough hiding spots so that the...

in the end zebra plecos will only be found in the hobby... there's no preservation of these fish done by any governmental entity and don't even mention Leandro Sousa or I'll just throw up... did you know that no single zebra pleco breeder ever made a youtube video on how to breed these guys and...

it's a trio...1 female spawns about 4-5 eggs each time the other around 12 as for spawning 100 at once...not zebra plecos..I've heard of people that spawned 20ish my max was 17 at once what's unusual is the spawning while fry are still inside...
