Awesome Lee...............
Where did you get them from?
I've always admired Wilds.......
Tried em before and they're a lil bit weird. One day they're eating like pigs and the next day they're on a strike............all of em.............
What's wrong?
Gave up after a year keeping em.........
But I'm going back to Wilds next year, after my studies...........
Any tips from you is very much appreciated................

Sounds like a change of diet or hexamita protazoan was the cause.
Keep your temp higher with the wilds and do not make drastic diet alterations. Don't overfeed....keep them hungry.
With limited information concerning you water parameters, feeding habits, water changes, etc.... :?:

Stunning fish Lee. How long have you had them?

Any attempts at breeding them yet?

Lee,
Thanks for the output.......
Can you elaborate more on this "hexamita protazoan ". I kept them in my bare comm tank together with my domestics. I don't use any heater and my water temp. is usually between 28 to 30 degrees Celsius. Feed em 3 times daily with BH and FBW. PH within the range of 6.5 to 7. Is it possible to lower the PH by putting some wood or peats? Daily WC together with my domestics.
