Film cannisters, breeding holes, etc.

[Jonette Stabbert]

I was able to puchase some empty little film cannisters from a nearby camera shop, but they are only available in semi- opaque white. Years ago, they were all black, but the man in the shop says he can only get these. Do you think the Paro’s will avoid them?

Hello Jonette
No, all is well, the color does not matter, though they take rather dark colors, black, brown or the like, but if nothing else is available, they also take other colors. :cheer:

Thank you, Bernd. When googling, I found a company in England that sells them, but because of your post, I’ll use the ones I have.

As I travel around and talk to local fish clubs about Paros and their breeding habits I tell them about using the film canisters for breeding caves. Within a few says I will get telephone calls from people offering me free canisters. I have also gone to camera clubs in my local towns and asked about canisters and have found those people willing to give me their old canisters. Ask around and they will become available.
