My first Post

Oh my god: I managed it to get this Blog started - I'm happy and I find it was not too difficult at all.
Let's start with some Killi-Storys:

...here you see the first picture of my still young Simpsonichthys punctulatus - this species is quite new to our hobby, I got it as eggs from a friend in Italy.
They lived in a small tank and where hiding all the time. Last week I counted them - I feared to have only one female - nope - I found three females, they are much much smaller than the males - so I divided them in a male-tank and a female tank.
Raising the fry was not diffichult - the young fish had a nice size - similar to young Austrolebias affinis - food was artemia Nauplia and soon they managed to eat grindal-worms too. Growing was quite fast!

Now I've to wait, that the females grow a little bigger and then I'll try to get some eggs from them. They have a Code: "Goias NP 03/07"
You see: Collected in year 2007 :-)
