Thanks for the reply Gary, eatyourpeas, and emeraldking! Unfortunately, haven't been successful in finding some. Have asked Greg, have posted on Facebook, have checked with NAGWG, etc. I have even tried tracking down people who purchased these fish on aquabid a few years ago and coming up empty...

Hi Gary, Things are going well. Still trying to get my Xenotoca melanosoma "Granja Sahriupa" to breed. Had a couple mishaps but trying to bounce back. How are you and your fish doing? Will be sending you a PM. Have a couple questions. Ok, completely understand. The only other person keeping them...

Hi everyone, I am looking for some Goodea gracilis "Rio San Juan Del Rio" Miller collection in the USA . I have a small group but looking to add more for new genes. These fish are very rare and endangered in the wild. I am working with friends of mine to build up the numbers in captivity, keep...

Hi Everyone, I am a member of two conservation projects Allotoca Mesa central and Xiphophorus Northern Platyfish. I’m looking for xiphophorus Apodaca, gordoni, regio, and both forms of meyeri. I was wondering if anyone is keeping these species? Preferably in the USA. I know the xiphophorus...

Very nice Fish everyone! I keep Goodeids. I have been looking for some Allotoca goslinei or even just a few males and I have been struggling to find some in the USA. I have 4 females. I have: Allotoca diazi Allotoca meeki Allotoca catarinae Allotoca dugesii Allotoca goslinei Allotoca...

Allotoca dugesii. Found 12 new fry and 5-out of the first drop seem good so far Allotoca meeki, melanosoma GS, and melanosoma "Rio Ayuquila"    

Update for the melanosoma : I have some gravid "Rio Ayuquila" females. Should have fry from them soon. I will get some pictures of them. The Granja Sahriupa have a while to go. They have been growing a little bit. Will get pictures of them as they grow more.   Some new species to add to the...

Hi Gary, It's great to hear from you :) . I hope things are going well. I will always and only keep Goodeids. I am focusing only on Goodeids. I have plans to setup a Goodeid preservation fish house. My hope is to get every species and location and keep them as long as I can. 

I thought it would be great to start up a breeding/keeping log. To share your experience keeping species of livebearers for other aquarists to learn about species. Please share your experience keeping species and please share pictures. My log will be about keeping Xenotoca melanosoma "Rio...

trying to find someone in the USA or another country that is keeping Xenotoca melanosoma "rio Ayuquila" from a different collection/collector? Mine were collected by Devin Biggs. Trying to find different fish to bring in new genes.

Hi Gary, how are you doing? Very nice picture and information on A.robustus. I will be getting some next spring. Keep in touch.

Goodeids :)

Hi ricefish The meeki I got from a member of the ALA and the lermae came from Mexico from the GWG meeting in Morelia. They were in a shipment. Very nice list and that's great you have had some fry. My colonies have been winter rest. I should be getting some fry soon. Thanks :)

Its been a while since my last post. My illescas had around 20 fry back in December. Otherwise, its been a while since I had some fry from any of my species. I'm still working on the maculata....hopefully I will get some fry. I got two new species. 2 pairs of allotoca meeki with location...

Very cool. I would love to get some amado nervo.

Lyraguppi: They are in the family of Goodeid or Goodeidae. There 40 or more species in the family with several different genus types(characodon is one genus). Majority of the family is threatened with only a few species that are secure in the wild. One specie is extinct. For some species there...

Very nice Jamie . Congrats on the fry. Lyraguppi: they are very rare and possibly extinct in the wild

Thanks for sharing Gordon! You have some very nice fish. 

New updates melanosoma : I only saved fry from 3 females. I had 3-4 other females that dropped before them but sadly the colony got a hold of the fry before I could get them. I managed to collect 27-28 fry from one female,25 from 2nd,and 35 from the 3rd. So,I got a good number. Goslinei: Just...

Thanks Gary! It's good to hear from you. I am very happy they are doing well. I will be offering some melanosoma very soon on aquabid.

New updates I have 3 goslinei fry living and so far they are looking good. my tamazulae had a nice big drop. I got around 9-10 fry. I only had one fry living from the first batch. my maculata is for sure pregnant and should be dropping fry this month! Hopefully its a good drop! and my...
