Rivulus atratus

[Svein]

Hi all, I'm back :wink:
i will receive some eggs from Rivulus atratus soon, and this is very small fish, so I wonder if someone hve raised these before, and what startfood you used.
I red the interesting thread about Paramaecium and was a little surpised that som small species don't take it. I have recently raised 2 species with Leptolebias with great sucsess, and I used Para.

every information are welcome
Regards

Hello Svein

I don't have any experiance with this fish but imagine infusoria to be a good starting point. Get some platinum grade SF Bay bse and start feeding with that too and see if they can take it. I bet they can.

Once you figure out what works let us all know!

If you need some help with infusoria cultures just shout but I suspect you don't.

Keep well

Thank's for the answer, Tyrone, and yes I have infusoria Paramaecium, so I will use my normally feeding program:
Paramaecium - vineagereels - microworm and bbs, I think that will work fine.
I see that you are closer and closer to Norway :wink: when you are visiting UK.
