Aquarium and aquarium in my passion for plants, fish and aquatic world
My small Killifish are growing ... and fast! I am always haunted by the "belly sliders", but I learned a few tricks (thanks Mark) and I seem to be able to get a lower rate in those hatched from the first 2.
However I also read that Austrolebias nigripinnis are among the species with the highest number of births "deformed" between the species of Killi (who started their own luck with this species ... mmmm ... good!)
After the disastrous first hatching, in which 20 of fry from eggs collected only 1, I say one, just one was healthy and the others all belly sliders, 2 subsequent broods regalatemi by an enthusiast, I managed to get almost 40% of healthy and strangely ... 2 or 3 initials BS after a few days have taken the ability to swim in "stable set", ie without the swim bladder problems.
Count: 3 I can count now opened on 9 healthy fish, including one for 3 weeks, 6 fry are now 10 days and a couple only 3 days old. The Killi grow very quickly and, as you can clearly see from the photos, in the space of one week will weigh a lot and change eye 4-5 times more than a newborn fry. They are voracious fish that eat a lot and continuation has obvious desire to grow and probably start to multiply as fast as possible!

I know ... you can barely see the video ... but they are piccolizzzzimi!
Hello prejudice I have a pair of killifish if I'm not mistaken those from Australia ... I have laid eggs and hatched alciìuni have .... I put them in a smaller tank without a filter with the heater .... I have bought him some food and liquid I'm giving one to three days .... now I died, but I know I have bn so far? just yesterday I added a little chopped Mangine normal to a minimum .... thank you if you have 5 minutes to help me .... thanks a lot ...
All I would say fair enough, perhaps the problem lies in the quality of the water, because without filter and with small (how?) this is very dirty if i have a few liters. It would be better to add the plants, also floated as a convenience and change the 30-50% often, every 2-3 days.
Biological filter (the classic with just the sponge external dall'aeratore activated) is ideal for small killi stick with a Microsorum linked above and the game is done. If however not from the live food for your fry to see tough they can survive, counsel for the deposition bath and then put those balls of growth of algae (I forget the name) the annual killi does not make us into the eggs and then hatching the young are able to nourish a breeding ground for microorganisms that are to be nestled in the algae.
Good idea to Clodofora aegagofila, I never thought of. Anyway I found good food as the shrimp dacapsulata, more 'convenient that hatches eggs continuously
The problem is that our friends killi to rear it would take 30 trays. You occupy a room, and I site in a bifocal
[...] Of 3 species, we should get at least 3 males and 3 females of 2 species, hoping for a few belly sliders and a decent relationship between males and females. I'm so rituffare for slavery in the [...]
