My Rilis


HexaD

Recommended Posts

Just wanted to share some rilis which I got off my mate Gbang earlier this week

I know Rilis aren't everyone's cup of tea but I have always been fascinated with how beautiful they look when they are berried!

All different type of patterns

This is one my favorite patterns, looks like a red nose/hino/rili mix

With some yellows settling in, feeding on a pellet

Honestly I don't think they have colored up yet as they have been in the breeding box for a few days

Pretty sure the coloration should be more intense once it gets onto the substrate

Can't wait!

they look realy nice HexaD

One question i have reguarding the breeding of rillis, say if i got a rilli female and bred it with a normal male without rilli genes, what persent would be rilli or would you even get any rilli's?

hope you dont mind me posting it here HexaD.

No worries, I had a similar question as I will be housing the yellows with Rilis and was wondering they would breed into yellow rilis, but from what I have read, they will breed into the wild cardinia type

Hopefully someone else has a confirmed answer here :)

      It has been a few weeks now and I have done a couple of large water changes. I tested the water parameters this morning, GH6 and KH2, TDS 140 and PH 7.5. Obviously the PH is off but there isn't anything in the tank that should cause the PH to rise to this figure so I will just run the tank for another month with 10% weekly water changes (probably just with RO water) and see where we are at that point. The RO water tests at PH6, and the KH and GH in the tank could come down as they are at the upper limits for Caridina shrimps! There are only about 10 very small snails in there at this point, but they seem to be doing well enough.

      I believe these to be very rare in Australia so you may even consider making it a longer term plan and produce your own by starting with the best CRS you can get as that is where the pure lines started! Depends how patient and interested in the project you are, but would save money as well? If I recall correctly it takes from 8 generations of selective breeding? They sell them at micro aquatic shop but do not ship to Western Australia, but that means they are available in Australia. https://microaquaticshop.com.au/products/pure-red-line-grade-ss-shrimp Good luck and just maybe smeone on here may point you in the right direction or be able to supply you with some.

      Hi Guys,  Does anyone know where to buy PRL shrimps in WA, not the CRS please. Thanks Regards

      Yes it’s super accurate to position where I want now and stay there- I am satisfied.  All the fish and shrimpers are doing excellent! Coming up on 4 years running!

      You must be pleased with that, it looks better and is much more robust and less likely to damage or leaks! The tank looks very natural now it has been running for a time. I see the ember tetras, how are the blue shrimp doing, I see a few? The cat and dog look very content and unimpressed, lol.
