rahim101 Posted September 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 The Calvus were origianlly brought in by Gold's and bought by my neighbor...I picked them up off my neighbor as he is getting out of fresh water and into salt!!!! They have been breeding like crazy for him...he has about 500 babies in grow out....they are spoken for....But I should have some in no time!!!!!

johnsmith Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 Looks like you have an awesome tang tank there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rahim101 Posted September 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 I will try to get some pics of the cyps up later tonight!!! It is quite a nice tank, but it seems to me that the multies are a little too aggressive towards the new calvus...I hope they settle in nicely...it's only been a couple of days, so I will give them some time to work it out, otherwise, I will have no choice but to part with multies!!!! The calvus simply cost way to much to take chances of them getting killed!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefishdude Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 They have been breeding like crazy for him...he has about 500 babies in grow out....they are spoken for....But I should have some in no time!!!!!

rahim101 Posted September 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 The pics of the cyps do not do the justice!!!!! The calvus range from 2" to about 5" for the big male. I have also included a pic of the dom male multi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tc51 Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 (edited) Nice shots, are the white calvus f0 and are they from Golds, Dennis told me he was about to bring in some whites this week sometime. Very nice set-up Rahim. Can't wait for my cyps to grow out a little more love the color. Tom. Edited September 20, 2005 by tc51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rahim101 Posted September 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 All the calvus in the pics are zambian black calvus...originally from Golds!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tc51 Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 Sorry my mistake Rahim, the last picture of the calvus look's just like my wild male I have left from the batch from Tanks-a-lot. and was looking to replace the 2 ladies I lost. Very nice fish bet they cost you a steep price. Keep me in mind if they spawn. Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rahim101 Posted September 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 I thought I saw a female left at Gold's (White Calvus) the last time I was in. I will take another look tomorrow when I go there!!! I wil definetly keep you in mind once these guys start producing fry...The females already look fat!!!!
