The worst was not past,I lost my pair a few months later,However I began to rebuild.The last year has been a great one. I will post pics soon.Redid my fish room.8, 75's for broadstock,3 or four compartments each.6,75's for grow out.Uv everywhere.A dedicated Quarantine system.Lights[Mh] heaters 500's and 1000's.Several 10 gall Tanks.Good air pumps.Good small heaters for Hatch through day 14.Several miles of plumbing.alot of time..And a unwavering desire to secede. My first hatch of 07 was on 7/29.Most of these fish are sold.I kept the best for the future...I will post pics.They are 6 months old and there were 127 that made it.I have had several batches since then and am raising many fish,about 1000.We are seeing many interesting patterns in my fish.My 4 year old son calls them [sprinkles].My percs have white dots between there bars. These fish are selling much better than plain Onyx.Curently I have two pair of Onyx spawning,a female from C-quest[by way of Terry holt In.] and a male from Rod.I call them[THR].THR are proven spawners, 4 days after hatch they are layin.My other pair are wild caught{WC} WC are on there 3rd batch. First batch she ate,Second is about 100 fish 1/11. 3rd batch was layed today.Any questions feel free to ask.I am a beginner but I will try to help.
