    yeah they just breed between the leaves, I have seen some of my males to care for a clutch between two leaves that were positioned one on another. If I would not have seen the leaves moving and male looking out, I would not even know there is a clutch in the tank.

    I even don’t see leaves moving …

    This gives hope, have my deissneri covered with leaves, they have spawned regularly but does not produce boys, now I have not seen them already 2 weeks, perhaps I can sometime soon see young.

    Best wishes Bernd, deissneri would be awsome :)Are these the only three from the census?

    Correct and which are not so young anymore, let’s see if it still works.
    Otherwise, pack your things and let’s get a few deissneris and distribute in Paroproject :cheer:

    We just have to hope they are still there :unsure: Lets hope they are in case the whole story would end up with such a trip. Given the weather here, I would gladly go 😀 but I have to build my new fishroom first.

    Then you build a new plant, we might find a few more passengers by 2016 and then fly to Bangka? :woohoo:

    No problem, however, is not a pleasure holiday, little sun, beach and boredom, rather a lot and spend hours standing in water or mud. :blush:

    Yeah, but still better than catching wild Nannostomus on the Equadorian boarder where you have to travel for more than a week on fast boats to get to the locality and if anything goes wrong there is no civilisation within the reach. That is where she wanted to go with me too and I think Bangka is much safer option 😀

    Yes I think so. Was more often in Malaysia and Thailand on the go, think Banka will be similar. Except deissneri there should be rather few types of Paros there.
    Nevertheless, the habitat of deinsser interested in helping me but very. 🙂

    Till now I can count about 12 – 15 young phoenicurus in different sizes, the new 64l juvenile tank is nearly ready to become inhabited, the space becomes to be a little bit limited in the parents tank (36l) … and I guess new fish baby have more change to grow up when there are not so many youngsters nearby …
    After Christmas I will take again some photos!

    This is one of the most frequently visited topics in our four forums. Of course, the joint Aquarium-Dietzenbach/my fish/and P-P-initiative is mirrored by this awareness.

    But there are relatively few reports about progress/changes/difficulties in trying to breed the fish to be read here. A few successful breedings only, and all others too young?

    It could be helpful for many if more people would report here, including observations of their own mistakes (every beginner makes mistakes, I sometimes do until today!), the changes of their care, of the behaviour of the growing fishes, the expected or unexpected difficulties in getting the fish to spawn and breed.

    Please try to tell us what you see and learn, even if there is no final success to be proud of!.
