One For The Badis Lovers Out There...

Goat - need to pick your brains, can you think of any Asian Killi fish that could work in this tank preferably not annual - though that could work? And also any small rainbow fish? All the rainbows Ive come across so far have been higher temperatures but I am sure I have heard of some that do well in low temps?

Every one is just copying Kizno
Your right though. I thought i was going to have something a little different because the only other person i know with a tank like this was goat but his was on a bigger scale so i though a asina riverine tank would be something a bit different and now about 5 people are doing them

Well im not doing a biotope any more im going to try breeding my Akysis instead. The types i have have no reports of bing breed on planetcatfish but from what ive read just the standard stuff like Live foods, cool water changes ect should trigger them to breed.

Otocinclus cocoma look to be suitable!

I had the initial feeling of "is that it" but they`re so sweet that I soon got over it

Looking forward to seeing your pics

Thanks for sharing Wills.

I`m dead jealous of your male, he looks much more coloured up than mine

Glad you`re happy with your new chap and chapesses

So altogether, how much were the badis & P&P?

 

[Wills]

Thanks

I think my trio and postage came to £22 all in all which I am more than happy to pay to be honest. I know they are small but just one of my dream fish ever since I saw them in PFK and its one of the dream fish that I am actually able to house properly right now
