160+ Young Amano movie!!!!

Post by zax »

160 (I've lost count of the exact number) of my tank bred Amanos made the transition to freshwater yesterday and the scene in my nano tank was truly one to behold. Heres a good quality movie of the scene...

All are fine today, once they become adults they become very resiliant just like the larger adults.

Congradulations

You get dizzy trying to watch them.

Maybe you can write a article on your success. And Mustafa can put it in the Articles part of this Forum.

Keep it up

hmm. My cherry shrimps never go darting around like that. About 80-90% of them just sit and graze, and the rest float around swimming gently. Are Amanos really different in the behavior than the cherry shrimps?

They do tend to be the first ones to the food in my muti-species tank and they move around more than the other algae eaters. I am also trying to get mine to grow to their maximun 2 inch size :)

Yes, that's a great idea.
