One of the things I am curious about is what type of fish people breed. I stocked most of my tanks over the years from LFS and stores like petco. After attending meetings (not AA) I realized that club members were breeding nicer lines of fish than I had seen anywhere and the prices are better than you'll find most places. I could have stocked my tanks with nicer fish for half the price! Now I plan to do most of my stocking from auctions and purchases through the forum. I'm also sure some members are breeding fish that some of us have on our "wish list."
Maybe this will help people get a better idea of who has what, because I am very curious. I'll start with breeding colonies I have currently set up and then list some young fish I am growing out for breeding purposes.
I recently started acquiring breeders, so I'm just starting to get into the game. I don't have any marketable fry yet, but hope to have some soon. I currently have the following harems set up:
Aulonocara Baenschi "Sunshine Peacock"
Aulonocara sp. Rubescens "Ruby Red Peacock"
Aulonocara Stuartgranti Ngara "Orange Ngara Flametail Peacock"
Labidochromis Caeruleus "Yellow Labs"
Melanochromis Auratus "Golden Auratus"
Melanochromis Johanni "Electric Blue Johanni"
Pseudotropheus Acei "Acei Yellow tail"
Pseudotropheus Lombardoi "Kenyi"
I am growing out the following for breeding purposes:
Papiliochromis ramirezi "German Blue Rams"
Protomelas Taeniolatus "Red Empress"
Sciaenochromis ahli "Electric Blue Ahli"
Symphysodon aequifasciata Discus (Green Turquoise, Red Turquoise, Marlboro Red, Golden)
