Yes, let's hope so! Otherwise we'll be led to think the same as we do about a certain Mr Hammond's clown loach breeding.... :twisted:
It will be nice to see the proof.

Great minds and all that :lol:

Without pictures I am inclined to not believe it either. You can get a cheap right to disc box camera for cheap.

Unless these fry are like Nessie

Many years ago when I was showing a guy turned up at a show and put 6 small kuhlis in the breeders class claiming to have bred them, we knew that he hadn't because we had been warned by someone who worked in the shop that he bought them from what he was going to do.

So really a photo still doesn't prove anything 100% because some of the shops locally to me have started getting in Kuhlis that are under 1" in length so it would be easy for me to buy 1 dozen of them and claim to have bred them :?

As breeding kuhlis is not exactly rocket science I'm keeping an open mind. Just because this species hasn't been bred (as far as I know) doesn't mean it's unlikely.
As well as little ones being available, just lately I've seen many really big and gorgeous looking Pangio oblonga in shops. Many females were quite gravid, so it's possible that they may breed under the correct conditions.

When it comes to Clowns or other Botiine loaches I want to see pictures. Preferably with rubble dust cleaned off :wink:

Those are cute little guys.
That pic reminds me of one of my baby chenis I took several years ago.

Hey,

since water parameters were far from perfect I guess :) it would be good to know what he fed fish with. Maybe a proper feeding is a key?

Anyone here is a registered user on that forum and can ask him about food he used?

Really cool looking baby fish! :D

Regards.

I've PM'd him/her there asking if he would like LOL to host information and pictures for a permanent record that would get found easily by search-engines.
