mountaintoppufferkeeper Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 (edited) Too awesome to not share with the fishfam. Disclaimer: I did a little photo shop edit and cut to "protect the innocent" / make it match my screen name for posting. I earned my first BAP certificate the Colorado Aquarium Society Breeders Award for achieving 50 points in the breeders award program. The two species that got me to the 50 point level were my F1 batch of Crenicichlia regani "Rio Tapajos" And my recent batches of F1 Pao cf palustris alomg with the written report that was essentially posted here in the forum I am slowly working my way master breeder award. Thanks @Cory, I did not realise I could participate in BAP until I found Aquarium COOP way back when. My long term goal is to make Master Breeder like @Dean’s Fishroom or at a minimum have fun with the species I have now and the next species I try keeping happy and breeding in the future.

Odd Duck Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Nicely done! Way to pick tough ones to get your feet wet (pun intended) in the BAP program. Nothing easy, like zebra danios for you! Quite an accomplishment! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
