Shipping fish - Water volume, O2, breather bags, etc.
WhitecloudDynasty replied to StephenP2003's topic in General Discussion
I don't like breather bag, if the box if filled up and cover, then tape well, how much oxygen is getting in? I'm on well water, I let my water age for 24 hour with an airstone, making sure the water have the maximum DO in the water. Since its new water it have no ammonia, nitrite, nitrate so its starting at 0. I dont use tank water because it already have some ammonia, nitrite, nitrate. I fast my fish the day before only, because the mass amount of waste should be out by then, fasting too long is stressful even tho they can handle it. As for the amount of water I normally go with 20% water and 80% air. Since I raise whitecloud and rainbow shiner they can handle moving water, and with less water it gets more surface agitation. When I bought baby trout to stock my neighbor pond, thats what they recommended.... "Shake the bag, they love it, itll add in more oxygen" 😆 I dont use pure oxygen cause I'm not that big scale, but I'm sure it would be better if I can. I could be all wrong but thats how I do mine. -

Any thing with good auto focus..lol -

No, when the female are ready the male will fire up red. How many month have you had them? Mine would start coloring up at 6-8month with decent lighting. Their blue marking should come in to stay.
-
Since you had them for this long, either they are the old line of rainbow that takes forever to color up or they are all females. Which happen more often than you think. In the lfs the male color up a bit and most ppls buy all the males. It weird cause every set of babies I bred I'm alway male heavy.

When I had mine I noticed some male are just not as active.

Just males is fine, guppy will jump before white cloud will
-
Sounds normal to me, they are 2inch fish that life for a few years. They aren't a guppy with a short life span and need to grow quickly. Raising in a big group is good and bad. Good - keep them from picking on each other, with their numbers itll start a feeding frenzy, and with that all the food you give them will be gone quickly. Bad - water quality will change as they get bigger.
-
Should be fine, I raise my down to 60, they are still actively eating and swimming but breeding does slow down

Who has mollies? Needing advice.
WhitecloudDynasty replied to Theresa_M's topic in General Discussion
I never had any problems with mine, other than the boys chasing each other. Every now and then you'll get a bad female thats always wanna pick on other. -
Love the idea! White cloud are way more hardier than guppies, but guppy will give you more generation within the few month you are with your students. I would work with wild guppy. They are smaller..less waste, less food, and smaller aquarium. The only problem i see is that you can choose your male, but who knows what the female may carry. With the shorter life in guppies you'll get a mature male sooner, white cloud hits their prime around 18month and can life up to 6 year. If you end up choosing white cloud pm me and ill send you some stock to play with.

They won't normally jump out, the only time I seen them jump was when I lower the water lv down to 2inch and was adding water to it. I sure your setup should be fine for the rainbow shiner

Small Issue with Aquarium Co-Op Sponge Filter
WhitecloudDynasty replied to dlebeda's topic in General Discussion
Sounds like you are push too much air into that stone..there is always a sweet spot where you get the maximum lift with the minimum air, any more or less will do thing like that -

If you do try it make sure "she" is ready, cause the male is alway ready and can rub her side open if left in there too long. May take more than a few try to get the hang of your breeders.

My setup is a breeding setup so all 10 gallon, so I would say they be fine but would enjoy a longer aquarium. I got them in my 10 gallon, 20l and 110 stock tank. As for your mini pond itll be pushing it at 90 degrees. But the temperature doesn't hurt them as much as lack of DO. These fish require high lv of DO.
