Guppy Line Breeding Project Log

Changed up the roof tubs a little. I now only have 3 strains in the tubs. The main focus is the metallic snakeskins.
The blonde El Silverado Endlers
The snakeskins got a space for fry to take cover as they are fry annihilators.
The layout and "upgrade".
The tubs were getting so hot I needed some shade to help the fish along.

One of the males above and a female came second in an online Guppy Show earlier this year.
Some more recent pics.
A nice big blonde female that gave some good fry in her day.
Bought some new pot plants for the tanks. C. Nurri and Cryptocoryne sp. Flamingo
I put these grates in some of the tanks so fry have a chance as speartail lines are ferocious fry eaters.
This is where deformed and stunted fry go to live out their days......
I put the metallic snakeskin line into a colony breeding tank and combined them with the pygmy cories. I decided to try out a matten corner filter. Water drawn in, pothos roots inside, then uplifted into breeder box that acts a a refugium for micro organisms and returns to tank. The outside of the sponge is planted with buce, anubius and cryptocoryne.

I mthought I had posted this but don't see it in this thread.
This is my video "studio" setup for entries into online competitions.
Simple and effective although I feel a better light is going to go a long way in presenting the fish better.
Also, if anyone is thinking of an air pump for the fish room or many tanks. This brand is awesome. I now have 2 in the fishroom and it is quiet and reliable. Been using one for 6 or 7 years now and still quiet.
