Re: [Killietalk] gender ratios in Austrolebias apaii...

Buen Dia Joel / Bruce:

Anyone interested in a lonely female? I got a bunch of fry some time 
ago... they definitely do not like my hot weather... there's just one 
1"+ female left. She's eating and seems to be hanging there. but her 
water feels like soup when I get the hand in it.

hasta pronto,

Pablo
