Top Ways For Breeding discus fish

Thu, 06 May 2010 07:31:10 -0500

It is not uncommon that exotic fish owners find breeding discus fish a little bit difficult to get baby discus. The hardest part about breeding discus fish is finding the right mates, this issue rises from the fact discus like to choose their partners alone, and not anyone suits their 'taste'. Under such circumstances, you've got two solutions for breeding discus fish: you can either buy a couple or raise them together in a group and hope they will make couples. The first variant is not the happiest, since a discus fish couple can be as expensive as a few hundred dollars, which is a lot.

This is going to be the th and final article of the tid bit series. I have had great response so I will be submitting a lot more fishing articles. However they will not be in a series format but rather single articles. Thank you for everyone's great support and encouragement. Once again all I ask is that you go and enjoy the fine fun of fishing.. Tough Perch BaitSometimes when the fishing is hot you can spend more time baiting your hook then actually fishing when its perch you are after. Perch, when on a bite will steal bait from you all day long so here's a tip that works for me. Cut a one inch long strip off the belly of a perch you caught. Split it at the half way point in two to simulate a tail. I guarantee this will be harder to steal than something like traditional maggots.. Soft Mouth CrappiesAnyone that has got into a day when the crappies are biting knows that it can be frustrating losing fish because of the thin membrane on a crappies mouth that quite often tears when...

Do You Fish With Worms?

Mon, 03 May 2010 06:04:15 -0500

The question posed in this article is for those anglers who fish with live worms, or as Hank Hill once called them, "Good old American Worms". I don't want to offend Bass fishermen, who consider worm fishing to be using a piece of colored rubber impaled on a hook that's large enough to land a small shark to be worm fishing, but I'm speaking of those anglers who use natures version of "the worm" to catch fish. Worms are a phenomenal bait, and fishing them has come a long way since the days of us sitting on the banks of our local pond catching sunfish.When we're growing up, almost all of us used worms to catch fish, and worms are just as effective today as they were yesterday. The only difference is the way we carry them and the way we fish them. We can now use a bait bag to carry out worms this is much more effective than carrying a Styrofoam container with you and gang hooks to fish them these are much more effective than "threading" a worm onto your hook. Yea, fishing with worms ...

Fishing With Alka-SeltzerI learnt this trick by being snoopy and listening in on a couple of fishermen that were catching fish next to me while I was being shut out. When the fishing is slow and they won't even take a slow moving jig then you want to change things up a little. In the end of a tube jig you want to put a couple pieces of Alka-Seltzer and then shove a little cotton against the tablets. When the water soaks through the cotton the hook will begin to fizz with almost assuredl...

Over-wintering pond fish

Thu, 29 Apr 2010 03:02:33 -0500

The metabolism of koi and goldfish is controlled primarily bywater temperature. As the water cools, pond fish require lessprotein in their diet. When koi and goldfish are fedhigh-protein food in cool water, the excess protein is excretedas ammonia from the gills. The microscopic organisms that makeup the biological filter and consume ammonia also slow down incooler water. Improper seasonal feeding can lead to a build-upof toxic ammonia, which stresses fish and reduces their wintersurvivability. When the water temperature drops to approximately F, start feeding with Spring & Autumn Pond Food. This typeof fish food is better suited for the dietary requirements ofpond fish in cool water and won't pollute the water with excessammonia. Some water gardeners continue to feed their fish untilthey no longer come to the surface. I stop feeding my pond fishwhen the water falls below F. There is no need to worryabout "frozen fish" if a section of the pond is at least i...

The important question of whether or not to add salt to yourpond is often confusing for beginners and forgotten byexperienced pond-keepers. To newbies and pro's alike we havethis to say: "Add Salt Today to Keep the Fish Doctor Away" True, there aresome negative effects of higher salt levels on plants in thepond, but overall we think it is absolutely the very best thingyou can add to your pond in terms of keeping your fish happy andhealthy.

Salt isalso very effective in killing bacteria and parasites in thepond. When added in proper doses, salting your pond candramatically reduce the threat of disease affecting your fish.It's just like with humans - we are always exposed to the commoncold cells in their body, but can usually resist if their immunesystem is strong. Similarly, pond fish and KOI are alwayse...

Fish Health in Hot Summer Heat

Thu, 29 Apr 2010 03:02:16 -0500

Summer is over, but for many of us - the heat remains. Here acouple of things to do to keep your fish healthy and your pondclear going into winter. First, remember to keep your pond wellaerated. This is very important to your fish because the pondwater actually holds less oxygen at higher pond temperatures. Soif it's still hot in your part of the country, keep thosewaterfalls and fountains running! This will keep your pond waterfull of oxygen, and reduce stress on your fish. If you see yourgoldfish or KOI gasping at the surface, it's a good sign thatyou don't have enough dissolved oxygen in the water, and thiscan be dangerous. Especially if you have a lot of green wateralgae in the pond. This algae can absorb much of the oxygen inthe pond water at night and cause very low dissolved oxygenlevels during the day - which can be deadly to fish! One thingwe recommend this time of year, is to do a partial water change.Drain off - of your total pond volume, and replace it...
