Six Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 out of curiosity, how many out of what you raise do you have to cull in order to get rid of any deformed fish? I've seen a lot of TR clowns make it through to the stores with messed up lips and gill operculums and just wondered. Nice set up and pics. Once you set up your sponsorship store/site you should add links for info on how to do what you're doing. It can only help the wild fish we dont catch and keep. GL! Link to comment
SK8URDEAD Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 What do you feed the fry when they first hatch? he feeds them rotifiers also can you give me a quote on how much it will cost me to get a pair with shipping? San Antonio, TX. about a estimate of how much that will cost. tanks almost ready so might be getting these in feb or march still lol. Link to comment
christosclowns Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 Welk generally i cull lets say I have 100 clowns about a tenth to a qaurter need to be culled. Sometimes it is less. I must say though that allot of people have said it is just genetic. I find that when they are fed gut loaded rotifer and water qaulity is great that there is only like 3 or 4 out of a hundred. Maybe its just a coincidence i dont know. And shipping to texas is around 36 dollars so ud be looking at like 100 shipped Link to comment
