Re: Jordanella floridae

Photo under separate cover Tim.


I found clean water, diet with vegetable matter, adequate hiding spaces.......... I used bottom mops and kept them over natural gravel in a planted tank............ Would classify them as average difficulty..

Keeping them well fed, healthy and males from abusing each other and females.. is the most important task at hand. They generally arrive in poor condition and I have seen far too many not well fed. . This poor condition has required some good live food to awaken their appetite.

Did I dream something or did Wright previously task me to do something on
Jordanella floridae?
The previous task on Script.cauveti is almost complete & is filling an
entire BKA Newsletter which will come out in the next couple of issues. I
have dug up many leads & we have, I think the history of this species.
The AKA Editor will be provided with this material & will decide to put in
the AKA Journal or not.
Thanks Wright. Your push in this direction opened up some questions for me
which had to be resolved, but then, is this not the point of an online
newsgroup ?

OK. Wright started this. I want breeding info.,photos on Jordanella
floridae. I think this species has had bad press in the past as a Singapore
import. I first saw this fish in 1969 but at the time didn't believe it was
a killie.
Is it a hard sp. or an easy sp.?
I require a few good photos of this fish.
For example: Is it true they eat duckweed?
