Fishchick Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 Hi Michael, good luck with the breeding program. It is good you have purchased 6 - the pairs are more stable if they can choose their own partner. The fish look a little stunted for their age. As part of good husbandry, I suggest worming them, then a treatment with flagyl. Cheers, J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
