HEllo,

Not a P gunawani …
They spawn with 102µS/cm water conductivity

[David]

I use this one now : pH/EC/TDS/°C Hanna Instruments Combo HI 98129
Very nice when i travel 😉

And i have those too:
– Testeur Hanna pH ECO HI96107
– Hanna DiST ® testeur DiST 3, conductivité 0-1990 uS / cm

I have mesured water in situ :

Ibok, Malaysia, 2013 :
22µS/cm
5.3 pH

David

[David]

I dont know every think about electronic .
I just made mesure with two pH meters and conductivity meter
after Kati ani :
pH 4.49
conductivity : 3µSm/cm

Nicolas is better than me to explain this but …

if you boil oak leaves the water is less coloured and pH fall well no ?

Phenol make uprise conductivity but the decomposition of leaves product hydrogen wich make fall the pH and not modify too much the conductivity.
I use to put peat pellets in filter, peat moss in socks and boiled leaves and alder with many ceratopteris cornuta in the tank and i manage to have very low pH around 2.72- 3 with conductivity like 12 to 20 µS/cm.

PS : Nicolas au secours !!!!

Thank you,
I try to take pictures soon

Hello,
I dont use this kind of leaf in aquaria.
I always heard old people said nothing grow under those trees.

Just a social imagination maybe …?
In french we say ” une légende urbaine”

Let me see

Damn, I’ll have to visit US to prepare borneo 2015 trip with you Nico :woohoo:

[David]

I caught some nagyi near Kuantan close to the highway from kuantan to pekan. This species can be found on the north. I didnt caught them in cherating but in Terrenganu, Cukai district.

Oops i forgoted …
I’m David Charmillon, i like to keep and bred (or try to breed 😉 ) fishes.

I like to travel in Asia and i spent 3 times in Malaysia since year 2000.
I hope i’ll have a new trip with my friend Nico in Borneo on 2015.
Nico open my eyes for paros but i like Big yellow betta, Waseri group and others Osphromenoidae too.
At this time I have some P linkei and P nagyi.

I ‘am on the the people who manage Osphroclic, the CIL-IBSC keeping fish list : http://www.cil-ibsc.fr/osphroclic/maintenance.php

My english is very bad but i can speack fluantly when i drink beer …

Hello,
I caught them with Nico last year and caught again some during august this year.
I know a man who caught some before 1990 at the same place.
