  1. YES, I believe it would. I personally think you could even mix in female platys to dither him a bit if you don't want hybridized breeding. edit: Guppies will interbreed with mollies just so you know.
  2. Hello across the pond! Welcome to the team from the US. I just signed up hours ago myself! How is the water in Sweden? I just went from 20-30 GH in Colorado, to 400ish in Oklahoma, might have a small learning curve but my fish have adapted just fine.
  3. I see no problem, you may find that there are more particles in your water. But I bet if you have or add a medium/large intake sponge to your power head should collect enough. Filtration is just a balance of biomass of fish and beneficial bacteria. Then water movement and water mass can effect consistency of parameters.
  4. Hey all, I'm new member. I want to get this out there so others can compare results. Also this seemed like the easiest path to seeing if Cory can help discuss this. I'm unsure if this will work with all species, but I see no reason that it wouldn't. (I only have owned "Giant Danios" so far). Anyways: Regular breeder mop to start. Then pulled. 2-3days before hatching. Fed as soon as free swimming. I literally just used organic spirulina powder for food! This mop had about 30-40. The first week or so, I fed a small amount of powder (only enough to cover 3-4in diameter of the water surface) every 3-4 hours while lights were on. I then started to mix in crushed flake food (bug bites color, xtreme krill, and xtreme spirulina). I'm sure that it would be even more successful with working up to baby brine shrimp. Filter was a small sponge filter, turned down fairly low in a 10gal. I would like to see if this works with CPD's, or any tiny omnivore fry that normally would need natural algae or mulm. Hopefully Cory can touch base on this for me and get the word out on this, I've heard ?'s like this on his Q&A's. Thanks for the light read.
  5. I just called my local petco. They are doing it this coming weekend 11/7-11/8
