    hi, thought i'd start a new thread cos noticed that was until cichlids.[] ok, down to biz:

    kunner, you mentioned that you put your zebras bought from gan, into a 1.5ft tank. how many did you put in there, and how long more you think it'll take before you need to transfer them to a bigger tank? you've given me an expensive but exciting idea. []

    (good news? my 3 hillstream loaches has been with me for one month, today! i've cleared my 16inch tank off all other fishes, started feeding them frozen bloodworms and now they've grown fatter. do you think they'll make it from here? if so, do you think it's safe for me to maybe get a couple more? thanks!)
    P-L-E-C-O-R-Y=M-A-N-I-A!!! YEAH!

    I got 3 L046 currently because gan got no more stock on the samll L046. I intend to put 5 inside (waiting for the next shipment). I think this is an "ideal" number to raise them. I don't think I am going to transfer them. I will raise them from there and let them breed there. I think they will breed with the environment they comfortable with. Only thing to note that they live in strong current in the wild. So I have put a very powerful filter to simulate the power flow. (either a strong power head or air bump will do the job [:] ) That all the inform I can gather. Happy "zebra crossing"

    I read somewhere that plecos like to breed in half cut bamboo. Split the bamboo down the middle and form a U. They like to breed like that.

    Juz to share

    Allen, the price for QH is sky high man!!! The small one ~1.5inch cost 60 buck and the bigger one is about 3 inch cost 95 big bucks!!!.

    leecs, I read this before too. But the bamboo is cover with dift wood or some rocks on top. This is because L046 use to be a cave breeder.[]

    rain, i just saw L046 in B328 Clementi, at lunchtime yesterday. lady boss said small ones $58, big ones $78.[:0]

    got straight into the shop, on the right side, above the plants, in tank with some 5"-6" baby arowana.
