    Used to breed the peacocks!! Yep takes too long.... nowadays there are so many hybrid strains I don’t think I’d go that route.. love the aceis and rustys though! My favorite are the labidochromis in particular the perlmutt which are not as common compared to the yellow labs.

    • @PrimeTimeAquatics
      @PrimeTimeAquatics  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      In some cases the hybrids bring in more money than the wild-type species. Not saying it's good or bad, but I have noticed that at swaps and auctions.

But you guys sure have made me enjoy my fish corner for sure! It would be nice to have a few of these breeding projects that could just support my habit by being able to trade or sell a few fish and plants! And it's the best reference library for when I'm researching anything I need to look for in this hobby! You have a video to cover it! I hope you all have an awesome day! Thank you for sharing!🌿🐟🌿💚🙏

    Love your videos dude! Just joined the GCCA I don’t even own any cichlids but am in the area lol. I’m real into cold water fish and natives, been breeding rice fish, flagfish (I love and hate these fish, some of them are straight up evil) shrimps, endlers for a while, attempting to breed Pygmy sunfish (I actually think they’re breeding but I have no idea they never leave leaf litter) and am about to start rainbow shiners ! Your shelldweller tank has really inspired me though and I’m about to set some up just have to finish the honey do list before I get more tanks.

    • @PrimeTimeAquatics
      @PrimeTimeAquatics  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      That can be a real challenge. You almost have to have multiple tanks just to separate the breeders from awesome offspring from the average offspring.

    Jason, this is off topic but I had some parasite in my angelfish tank...used higher temp, salt and general cure. Never saw white spots but I figured it would not hurt. Angelfish returned to healthy state. However I would like to use my python to clean my discus tank. Sounded risky to me so what sterilization for python would you suggest I use? Would flushing it out with hot tap water do it since it has chlorine in it? Thanks for the help.

    • @PrimeTimeAquatics
      @PrimeTimeAquatics  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I would bleach it, then run hot water through it. Finally I would make sure it thoroughly dries for a week or two. That should do it!

    I wouldn’t mind the brown females even if duller in color and even if I wouldn’t be interested in breeding , I know I am pretty unusual as most people would prefer males but I’ve noticed that with fish, just like with birds and mammals females are less aggressive . My male tiger barbs are a pain in the a....e , I wish I would have gotten only females lol .
