Hi there.
As Stephan mentioned only recently in the latest newsletters, the Aquarium Dietzenbach has around 500 of this seldomly seen species swimming – and is preparing a breeding project where one can apply for some of these 500 fish via MyFish.org.
So what I would like to know is, who else has apllied already?
And as 20.20 phoenicurus found there way to Hamburg already and might be swimming with Bernd and Stephan now: How are they? Is the first impression („Magnificent animals in excellent condition“) still valid?Maybe we can just follow this special campaign here on the forum.
September 26, 2014 at 8:41 pm #7191Dorothee Jöllenbeck-PfeffelParticipantHi MK, I’ve 1/2 of them got on 9.th of September.. They are
rather young, but seem to be in good condition.
I ve posted photos in the threat Phoenicurus?September 26, 2014 at 9:27 pm #7192helene schoubyeKeymasterI have four of these swimming now, – and they are indeed in good condition.
It is my impression that quite a number of people have signed up for this project, and also joined the parosphromenus project.
They may be quite young, and has of yet, in my tanks, not shown much spawning behaviour.September 28, 2014 at 12:05 am #7194helene schoubyeKeymasterHere is a photo taken this evening
September 28, 2014 at 10:00 am #7195Dorothee Jöllenbeck-PfeffelParticipantPhantastic photo! My male looks the same pretty
colored, but till yet I couldn’t catch a photo!September 28, 2014 at 11:06 am #7196Davy GrenouilletParticipantVery impatient to have my new pair.
I took 8 pair for CIL members forum, I’ll will have them next saturday from the IGL meeting.September 30, 2014 at 11:52 pm #7199Tautvilas LaureckisParticipantDear parofriends,
I am new to this project but I am quite sure what I am doing, I would like to introduce p.phoenicurus to Lithuania, The Baltic states. I think it would be the first paros at my country or even region. :woohoo:
So I have a big ask for help with this possibility to get 3 pairs of paros from the Aquarium Dietzenbach. I have applied into this project, but just got an aswer from Mr. Matthias Wiesensee (from my-fish.org), that it could be possible to get these fish from their partner Mr. Herbert Nigl Aquarium Dietzenbach in Dietzenbach, Germany, just they can not ship paros straight for me. So maybe there is someone who could take these paros from Aquarium Dietzenbach and send it with care to me? If there is, please write me PM. I could pay for care and shipping.Warm regards,
TautvilasOctober 9, 2014 at 6:39 pm #7223Gonin herveParticipantI receive mine also,not big fish but very nicely colored
October 9, 2014 at 9:20 pm #7225Arno BeißnerParticipantI got from myfish the commitment for 3 couples.
Now I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of the animals. 🙂October 9, 2014 at 10:04 pm #7226Dorothee Jöllenbeck-PfeffelParticipantHere ist one of my girls:

October 23, 2014 at 8:16 pm #7285Arno BeißnerParticipantToday I was able to pick up my ordered fish from the merchants. But there were only 2 of the 6 available. 🙁 Sold? The dealer wants to order replacement.
Now I hope I also got a pair.
I see a difference in the caudal.
The difference is clearly visible after acclimatization.October 23, 2014 at 10:05 pm #7286Pavel ChaloupkaKeymasterLooks like a pair, should be fine.

A general remark: All queries concerning this special project are not issue of the Parosphromenus-Project but should be directed towards Aquarium Dietzenbach and My-Fish only. The P-P is not responsible for any inconveniencies regarding the correctness of those transactions.
Certainly, you are welcome here and can ask/write to the P-P with respect to sexual differences or details of care.October 24, 2014 at 10:20 am #7288Davy GrenouilletParticipantYes you have a pair. The male is on the top on the photos.
October 24, 2014 at 9:37 pm #7295Arno BeißnerParticipantHello Davy, hello deepin peat,
thanks for the help. For me, it is still difficult to distinguish.
Will I learn yet – I hope.
The animals have now already get a great color. But still hard to distinguish. I’m still trying to take photos. But it is now more difficult in the aquarium.Hello Peter,
thanks for the welcome. The post was not meant as a complaint to anyone. He is only one report as much goes wrong – Murphy’s Law. 😉Greetings Arno
