Great! Let me know where you intend to get your tank? I think I want to make new ones too.Originally Posted by rainbowdarter
No problem, post your field report here!
You mean mine? They two seems to be love that hole man!
Yup what a friday the 13.
Mine also seems to hiding or laying outside the shells only. One of them even abandoned his territory and lay hidden outside a shell that is quite
near to another female/male. Normally they are always waiting for me to throw in some tetra bits but yesterday totally never even go n grab the food.
Check for ammonia level and it's 0. Didn't disturb them much except for small water change 3 days ago.
Hope they do stay alive. It's only coming to 3weeks.
Cross fingers* yeah better just to leave them alone and see if they can recover. Good clean high ph water for them

I think i'm left with only 2 N.Similis. The other one seems to missing or dead inside one of the shells. The other fellow already took over his territory.
Hmm wondering should i change to occelatus pair if these 2 are of the same sex. NKS stock is still small to find a female.
Take your time bro. It's also not easy to find an occellatus pair and they really kill each other. I bought about 6 occellatus and left with 3. 1 pair and 1 super dominant male which I traded with a friend for another fish.
Some of my recent tank setup pictures.

NKS have some gold and blue occelatus and able to identify male or female. Guess will wait for 1 week and see the development, worst case scenario get a few more similis from nks again.
Anyway hows the order for the melagris?
All the best bro. Checked with the poc, he is still waiting for reply from supplier. He will drop then a mail again

I just went down to NKS yesterday to take a look at their stock. The Similis only left with about 10 pieces. Since can't really sex them up,bought 2 of them that i'm guessing is female since smaller and pairing with another one.Now i can't seems to find one of them and the other one seems to be always flaring and not choosing any shells.
Guess it's wasted again.
Tanga sales have been moving fast lately. Hopefully LFS will take notice and bring in more varieties. Anyway, new tanks made! New fishes ordered! Super excited! If you guys need a 3ft tank or 3ft partition tank can come over my place and tank. FOC for tanga khakis only. HeHe

Its the same pair of Brevis. They probably had a good time with me being away. lol
So far spotted only one little fry, not sure if the rest are still inside the shell or dead.
The poor soul is just swimming around the perimeter of the parent's shell.
Should i take him out or keep it inside for another few weeks?
I would say take it? Grow it up in another tank. Spotted anymore fries?
No sightings of other fries, can't even locate the lone ranger now. Just hope he is hiding in some shells or blind spots.
Still see any fries?

Sadly nope. Most likely a casualty.
Both parents turned dark and passive. Keeping to their shells all day long. Not sure what's happening.

10 fries down to 2. Had to net them out before i lose them.
Once free swimming, they wander between shells and hide around them.
