    gourami experts??

    Thanks! That's a lot of useful info! I have only had them try to spawn once but that was when I had a male in the tank. Since then they have stayed slimmer and non-aggressive except for the chase out of their immediate territory like you said. None of them have nipped fins so I figure they are...

    short and sweet question

    OK, that confused me, to get blazings all I'd have to do is pair their offspring? Or did I miss something? And the 1st offspring would still be normals right?

    lobster roaches

    How many adult roaches would you say could support 3 juvi leopards and 2 adults while still keeping the colony healthy? Thanks for any replies

    The Pro’s and Con’s of Mealworms

    interesting I'll still use both crickets and mealworms but that is interesting. And it kinda makes sense if you look at a cricket compared to a mealie but I wonder how roaches compare?

    What the heck!?

    I know mealies and water don't mix, but I've never heard that misting kills them. I know like the second they hit water they start dying though...

    I wanted to try something new

    So I bought some lobster roaches and I'm letting the colony grow right now. Any tips? I pretty much know all their care because I've researched it. Are they good feeders? And how many adults would you say I need to keep my colony healthy while feeding 3 juvis and 2 adults?
