Just curios if people in Vancouver area want Berghia?

[ferret]

I'm interested and it is worth to try for breeding them. One of my fowlr system was infected with aiptasia two years ago when I bought 40 lbs of live rocks from another member. Now I got tons of these guys in the display tank only and the advantage is my water in the DT is crystal clear.

Im looking for one of these guys,can anyone sell me just one?

i'm breeding them right now-be ready by november

[monocus]

but i suggest that more people breed them -i was putting out about 50 a month and couldn't keep up with the demand-and i was just bringing them to j&l

What were you selling them to J&L for?

[monocus]

j&l were selling them for 14. 95 each-i got 7.95 for each-but you bring in 40 or 50 a month it really adds up.next project i am going to breed are neon gobies-and then slowly work up to helfinger gobies.all the while dropping the prices for everyone

Well I got my 6 berghia in today and will try to hatch 1 egg strand that was laid during transport by fedex. So, fingers crossed in three months I might have some berghia!

Btw thank you monocus for the tips and showing me your setup.

As a side note I talked to j&l they said they are planning to breed berghia aswell. So lots of berghia around Christmas.

Cool I would love to know how you do it. If you don't mind sharing, I have PM'd you for info.

BTW I kind of want to give it a try now. I am getting excited for Tuesday delivery!

PS. You want to keep berghia's in groups of two or more as they actually need to double team an aptasia to take it down, especially bigger aptasia.

I am interested in a pair and would like to know how to breed them.

Do they eat anything that I might not want them to eat?
