    Want to try breed other fish

    Hi all

    I'm looking at trying a few new fish out (to breed that is).Fish that will breed in the same waters as a discus (wangaratta water) but don't take as much care and time to grow out.

    Hi Brad,

    I don't think it would matter what you tried to breed - if you do as well with whatever you have a go at and they breed the way your Discus do you will soon be able to open your own Fish Shop!!.

    Hope all is going well with you and your Family, haven't heard from you for a while.

    why not try your hand at something thats hard to breed like a clown loach or ghost knife fish. they have been bred before and if someone else has done it i'm sure you'll figure out a way. nothing's more satisfying that doing something that cannot be done and with a species thats exclusively wild caught it would be nice to have someone breed them in captivity. maybe do your bit for conservation
