Now there is a coincidence – a reply to this topic after nearly 2 years inactivity just as I come back to the forum!

Now, this tank did not work out as a Paro breeding project due to issues with water parameters. I still have two of the original Paros in a retirement tank, but unfortunately I lost the females before I could have a proper attempt at breeding. However, I have now just turned two of my 25l tanks back into a Paro project. One is stocked with 4 currently unidentified young Paros which had been languishing in my local shop for many weeks. The second will be stocked with one species from this list –

[i]Parosphromenus anjunganensis
Parosphromenus linkei
Parosphromenus ornaticauda
Parosphromenus parvulus
Parosphromenus opallios
Parasphromenus filamentosus[/i]

These are what are available from my importer, I have yet to decide which one – any suggestions?

In the mean time, I have been breeding Sawbwa resplendens, Danio erythromicron and Petruichthys sp ‘Rosy’, which are the current occupants of the ‘Bucket’ (among others).

Here is a recent video of the current status of the tank for those interested –
