Breeding

[Matty P]

Is there a part of this forum dedicated to breeding. I was wondering if there is any fish I could breed in a 5 - 8 USG tank?

Livebearers guppys, plattys, endlers etc

bumblebee gobies, bettas, zebra danios...

This question comes up every once and awhile, from what I understand there was a breeding section but it was easier to just put the questions about breeding in the section related to that species. As that is where everyone was posting anyway.

I was never around for it, so cant say for sure.

How about some shrimps (amano, cherry...) Is there a part dedicated to breeding?

What are the main makes that are easily accessible in the UK for tanks roughly 5-10G (Max l: 40cm, w:30cm)?

I have this tank http/www.aquaone.co.uk/images/52090BK_001.jpg but in silver, it's about 8 gallons. They are stocked at Maidenhead Aquatics if you have one near you.

That looks like quite a nice tank. How much is it and could you post some specs please.

Cheers

Think I paid £40 for it without a stand. It came without a heater, but has built in lights and comes with a filter. The dimensions are 38 x 30 x 34cm.

Sounds good so far - I've decided I'm going for a Dwarf Puffer (it was between breeeding and a DP), so do you know how good the filter is LPH?

 

[Lizzie71]

The tank sometimes comes with an undergravel filter which I hear is rubbish. I managed to get one with a fluval one which is OK for what I need but I don't know exactly what it turns over. You might have to invest in something better.

As I am only going to be keeping the one (and mabey a few other things liek hopefully amano shrimp if there not gobbled!) I will probably go for a small internal filter e.g. Fluval 1+, to keep the wee DP happy.
