Picasso's, Gold Stripes, Mocha O's......OH MY!!

[cannon77]

Hello everyone, we are breeding clowns of all types in Bakersfield, CA. and just joined this forum and figured we should share our journey with you all as well as other forums we maintain throughout Cali.......Lets start with some pics and a list of what we have so far......
10.5 pairs so far with more coming
Premium grade Picasso's
Snowflake's
GSM's (two pairs)
Mocha O's
Aussie B&W's
ORA Domino paired with ORA Brown Saddleback
Melanopus'
True and false Perc pair
False perc and Naked O
And a baby Snowflake (still a baby, not mate yet)
Will be goin after some serious Hybrids VERY SOON, so stay tuned for those

Our setup as of now is.......
2-55g breeding tanks (one four section and one three section) both running off a 55g sump, will soon be adding three more 55g tanks for more pairs.

A temporary 40g divided in two, w/10g sump. When the next 55g is ready, this will be our hospital tank.

1-20L w/20L sump for the baby Snowflake and nem garden until she/it gets a mate and moves to a bigger tank.

Also will be adding 8 maybe 10, 30g tanks all divided for grow out and grade seperation, they will be plumbed to a 55g sump just for those tanks.
We dont have a fancy camera yet so please excuse the pics for now, but here is what we got so far....

Let us know what you think so far. We will do our best to keep this updated as often as possible, thanks :fun4:

Thanks, we will work on some newer pics, these are about 3-4 weeks old and some has changed so far

Welcome to the crazy train, enjoy the ride:spin2:

Looks like fun, you're gonna be busy.

 

[cannon77]

OK, so it looks like we might be getting a super crazy pair going. Until I get the female to accept the male and I get the name trade marked, all I can tell you is, think Blue

 

[cannon77]

The clowns now have a facebook page, go "like" it and check it out, Thanks

Not much to update other than we made our move from Bakersfield, CA. to Phoenix, AZ. and all the clowns survived. The move was a PITA!! But its over now so we can focus on the breeding and get serious with it

Thanks for sharing. My buddy and I just started up a single tank to hopefully have a mated pair in the future.

Looks great! What is the dimensions on your breeding tanks? They look like exactly what I am looking to set up!
