Hello Everyone I Need Your Help!



    Hello everyone! My name is Grant Baker and I am 17 from Gig Harbor WA. I am semi-new to killie fish (have successfully bred a few easy plant spawning species) and would love to get some advice/opinions on the subject of natural breeding or the neglect method lol. I took this excerpt from the Cincinnati killie club... "An approach of 'benign neglect' has worked wonderfully well" with Aphyosemion australe, reports Frank Louden. He breeds them in a 10 gallon tank with an undergravel filter and lots of watersprite, and collects fry on a regular basis.

    Now I would love to use this method on some Australe this spring/summer because I find that I don't always have the time for a lot of egg care/ incubation. I basically just want some carefree and fun Australe breeding (or suggest something that may be better that the Aus.) ! I think I will use a 10 gal. with a sponge filter, 50 watt heater and as much java moss as I can fit in there! :)  I will feed flake, frozen and live white worms, do a weekly water change and maybe feed some bbs or vinegar eels when I see some fry. Sound good? Let me know, thanks all,

-Grant
P.S. I also need to purchase a pair of fish and a ton of Java moss so if anyone has fish and moss for sale let me know! (see my other message)
