nelly---<1>channa keeper



Nelly's CHANNA ORNATIPINNIS

Tank rio 125...<A side note to remember, ensure tank has a good tight fitting lid, all holes to be blocked prior to keeping these beauty's..escape artist's so iam told..

occupants-- 1 male / 1 female approx 5inch's...

Rock's / slate / bogwood / plastic plant's /
Live floating plant's--- frogbit / duckweed / salvinia minima.....

Temp is at 20-21c at present, This tank requires no heating as these are sub-tropical....
Filteration is the standard jewul internal filter with angle pointing down towards the ground so the top is like a mill pond...

Water change's with these guy's are very minimul as and when required only<if test's come back negative>Even then only preform 10%...

Feeding these guy's dried meal-worms from wilkinson's, garden centre's also some pet shops, blood worm's took a while but got there in the end and loved them, also garden worm's.....Frozen blood worm work's well so iam told as doe's silverside's and prawn's shrimp etc :good:

The fry at present are chowing down deshelled brine shrimp egg's / very finely crushed pellets including dried meal worms which i ground to a very fine powder, also micro-worm's, tried them on crumbled tropical fish flakes last couple of day's and there happily taking these aswell
