Re: panda loach(goby) [Protomyzon pachychilus]
No worries. My "pretty good" wasn't a very accurate description.... I haven't tested in a while, but as I recall the results I had were close to what atmichaels reported. I've heard once you go further inland and start drawing well water it turns into liquid rock.

Re: panda loach(goby) [Protomyzon pachychilus]
Thanks Austen, I'll keep it in mind. I was hoping to make it to a couple of fish club auctions on the east side this spring, but that didn't happen. Hopefully a shop hop to the east side will work out this summer. Our Lake Michigan tap water in Holland/Zeeland is pretty good. I've bred over 170 spec...

Re: panda loach(goby) [Protomyzon pachychilus]
Unfortunately I did loose a few of the adult pandas that I had raised from fry. They grew out quickly and looked like they were doing well, but based on the information above I suspect the sudden losses might be attributed to oxygen requirements? Temps in my unheated tanks range from 68F to 70F, so ...

Re: Breeding Peppered Loaches
I had them for about 3 months before I found the first fry earlier this year. I purchased them as adults, sexing out a good ratio of males to females, (I used pectoral fin differences to sex them and apparently was pretty accurate). They were the only fish in their tank, and had a lot of cover provi...

Re: Breeding Peppered Loaches
I re-homed the spawning adults and remaining fry to another hobbyist in the local aquarium club last Saturday. Just found more very small fry zipping around on the bottom of their tank. Might be "residual" gunteas, or they could be the Pangio sp. that were also in the tank. Hoping it's the kuhlii lo...

Breeding Peppered Loaches
Any reports of Lepidocephalichthys guntea being captive bred before?
I had them breed multiple times for me this year. Triggers seemed to be increase in temp and current. Lots of cover as well.
Small number of fry survived with adults.
