  • Tropheus Livua - My first Spawn

    Its kinda cool.  I have a colony of Tropheus Livua(Blood Chest), 25 of them!  Well, I had some mature females and I guess I now have at least one maturing male because I have fry!  I stripped the mother Saturday evening because I didn't want her to spit the fry in the tank and risk them getting eaten.  I have 14 fry, but they are like 1/4" long.  

    I recently added more holey rock I got from when I went on the Holey Safari with Geoff and the colony loves it.  I have the fry in a plastic container with drilled holes on the side inside the tank with the colony.  I was in a hurry to sell my Chimba Reds in anticipation of the new fry's arrival, but not anymore since I have them in the "plastic fry basket".

    I plan to take pics Monday and post.  In the meantime, here a couple pics of some of my Livua colony.

      Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
      Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

          Too bad we can't write off all these young ones as dependents eh?

          Truth is the cement that holds the bricks and stones of a sane and civilized society together. Remove the former and the latter will crumble.

              Maybe if you set up a business breeding fish for sale, but then dont happen to sell any, you can write the costs of operating the business as a loss. Transfer the loss to your 1040 and lower you taxable income.
