Also, honestly, is there going to be enough to go around? Because seriously I could use about 6 of them in my tank right now (FWIW I'd be happy to rehome them after they've cleaned house). Maybe a store ought to think about bringing in a shwack (or a bushel) of them since there seems to enough interest?
why not farm them after? I would farm them if i have time and aptasia because almost everyone in calgary tank has a problem

We have brought them in before..... Problem is they ship horribly, so we would have to charge an arm and a leg to cover losses..... I would take a couple..... Maybe if we get them all sold in C-town the OP might consider the drive down

Also I will say they are all sold right now as of this post.

I will msg everyone if there is enough Interest I can make the trip to calgary this weekend.

Just don't back out cause I'm driving 5 hours away. So I'll be ****ed and I'll call you out on this forum. Don't waste my time PLEASE !!! (not meaning to be a JERK ! but have had it happen!)

Default Okay

Guys this berghia is so easy to breed it just takes alot of aiptasia. I started with 3 a couple of months ago and have grown about 30 adults to now and have thousands of eggs in the setup as we speak but I can't keep up with the Aiptasia colony. thats the only reason I am selling all that I have cause I'm hoping the aiptasia will grow out of control in the next 3 weeks.

Just place them in a 1 litre or pop bottle with new sterilized saltwater in your tank with an airstone. feed an aiptasia everytime you see them turn white and wait like about 5 weeks. as long as you have the bottle topped off from evap water you will have some hatchlings. all you really need is about 20-30 hatchlings and they should eventually clear your tanks. Oh and make sure you don't get the bottle contaminated with bugs and copepods, mysis, etc. They will eat the eggs.

Thats it. not time consuming but a little addicting. LOL

I'm hoping others will breed them too. They just came out with a great book on breeding berghias and it's awesome.

"Breeding Berghia Nudibranches"

by Dene Banger

Very good book.

thanks

Default Going to Calgary

I need a place to meet everyone in Calgary. What is the best pet store to meet you guys at. Don't know the city very well and don't want to go far from the airport in the NW area. Coming in from Airdrie. Better yet is there one guy that can meet with me and take them for the group?

let me know

thanks
erick
