| From Adelaide,
Have had many many tanks over the years and kept just about every marine species u can keep in a tank.
Got rid of most of the tanks.
Now only have two 1 approx 100lt small tank empty and a 400lt 5ft in the house.
Currently breeding mystery snails in the 5 ftr and hope to soon be adding some long fin albino's to the mix.
Have ordered four from a local breeder hope I get a pair.
Only problem is only one of the breeding pair he showed me was long fin. Even if he gives me four long fin babies if they breed I'll probably get a mix. |

| Hi Kolokotron and welcome to the forum. If you are looking to breed them, you may want to consider only getting a couple from your local breeder if he has only got one pair and try and get the others from soemone else. This is only to try and get different bloodlines and stop interbreeding between siblings as this will help keep the young fit and strong giving a better chance of survival. i'm sure thare are plenty of guys on here close to you who can help you out.
