I see.. Do you have a pic of your breeding tank?

Wow, this is surprising! Didnt know that they're so hardy that they can take untreated tap water! But can i know is there any reason why you dun use treated water?

Straight from tap? Wow...for fries they are so hardy? How much do you WC daily? 10%?

yes water straight from tap.
I do about 90% to 100% water change.

from the start of my fish keeping hobby about 20 yrs ago, I do not treat my water.. at times only add salt.. same goes for all my other fishes..

Think depends on where you stay, the tank in my in-law's place which is sembawang, if I don't add anti-chlorine, the fish will flip within an hour and can smell chlorine when water is flowing out from the tap...
