Thomas, Imo, it is an avantage to turn on the UV full blast to minimize free float bact. in the main tank.

I guess, in natural habitat fishes are selective, they are able to swim/migrate to suitable places, wherelse, captive are confine space and more over bact. are more intense, relief eggs to nanny from the brooder is more conducive (unless an old bird with good knowledge in water chemistry, otw, heng suay lor).

Hi bro Dennis, can advise how you see from the video that there are free gloat bact and thus to turn ON UV light 24hrs? Can teach?
Honestly I do not know if the pair will breed or not. I will just leave them in this way for now and even if the eggs are laid, I will just leave them to handle themselves. But I highly doubt they will breed successfully.... Cheers |

Imo. I'll set up FGT over the pond, pump (flow rate mild app. 1200~1800ltr/hr) water, rain bar and aeration via UV (Min 16 watts, preferably 32 watts) from main pond into FGT/large tank, the over flow water will flow back into the IOS...this'll not effect/causes any swing in the chemistry. I guess, this'll gib the fertilize eggs in the brooder for a better chance of survival.

In the end, I remove the partition in my fgt as the suspected pair doesnt really 'glue' to each others. On the third day, they swim separately... Haiz....
However the pair in my office looks more promising 😊 below is a video. Not sure if the photobucket works this time? Hopefully this pair will continue to be so lovely... Lol Btw any expert can advise which is the male in the office tank? Is it the male is the piece that 'jerk off' and produce the sound? Or is the female? Or could be either? Hope some experts can enlighten me on this. Cheers! |
