Hi Peter,
I don't think you will get many reaktions on this one from Europe, because I
just released the paskai's on the I.R.G. convention last june.
Anyway I tried several waterconditions to spawn the paskai in.
The best result I got with soft water, waterconditions:
hardness ~ 50 ppm, pH 6.5 - 6.8 and a watertemp about 25 - 28o C.
Use a well planted tank or pick the eggs otherwise they eat the eggs.
To increase egg-production use more males then females in your breeding-tank.
The waterconditions in Phoenix are about the same as they are over here and
I also tried those waterconditions to spawn the paskai, but didn't get a
fertile eggs.
Maybe after a few generation, who knows, remember your paskai's are F1.
Groetjes,
Wim
b.t.w.
Has Julie seen the slide's yet :~)
