Largely motivated by our passion for Tropical Fish Keeping, Andri and I decided to start breeding Tropical Fish. Shaun and Andri.

This page is largely inspired by our desire to show off some of the beautiful fish we own, as well as those that we have bred. We will occasionally put some of our babies up for sale, please message us If you have any questions, or If you are interested in purchasing anything we have on offer. Thank you for taking the time, and for your interest in our little hobby.

I had the great pleasure of seeing them live.

Super chuffed today! A batch of Odessa Barb babies making their way to Aqua Empire today and with the first quartet of Midnight Metallica Guppies! The midnight strain was developed by my son Colin and I over the last few years and has proven extremely virile. The Midnights will be on display and will be available at Aqua Empire in a few weeks time.

Better video of all the Odess Barb fry.

Beautiful male and female Odessa Barb trio. The male has the reddish sheen which intensifies when there are other males around. They are quite spectacular and not often seen in the Aquarium trade in South Africa.

Odessa Barb spawn coming on beautifully! They're growing like weeds! Note a very bioactive growout tank using algae to first the water. I only clean the front glass at the moment as big water changes can be lethal to the fry.

One of the most under-rated Aquarium Fish, hardy and extremely peaceful. This is a male Cherry Barb with his two girls.

Interesting to notice the courtship behavior here of these G1 cross guppies. Noticeably this has gone missing over the last decade or so in some guppy variants. Nice to know the hybrid vigour is there!

25/11/2022

So this is a 6 week old G1 cross between our Black Moscow Line and the Spanish Dancer line. He's still very young and is only just starting to colour up. Going to be interesting to see how those blues and reds develope as he grows up.

Do you know how difficult it is to focus on something this small? This is a Kerri Tetra fry. To give you an idea, those brine shrimp eggs bubbling away next to the fry are 0.2mm in diameter. Andri Graham Richard Barnfield . Spawned right here by Colin and I in a 1ft Aquarium using collected rain water and conditioning the parents on Mosquito larvae.

Young Master Colin gave me permission to post these photos of this stunning 10 month old Blue Lace Over Halfmoon Rosefin Betta that he bred. Time to put him to the real test, let's breed him!

Was watching our Glass Bloodfin Tetra spawning in our community tank this morning and luckily got it on camera. So just for those that want to try it...

Fish are 8 months old, they were conditioned on Mosquito larvae for about a week, water temp 26 Deg C, pH about 6.7, early morning spawners. I did a massive water change using rain water every time it rains. The female fish is significantly bigger and heavier than the male.

It seems the water changes with rain water, along with the live food induced the spawn. I'm convinced the chaotic atmospheric conditions had a part to play as no spawning was witnessed during the dry season.

The ( Hopefully).Daddy of our new Corns, he is HUGE !!!!

15/10/2022

So today something different , we decided to breed our beautiful Corn Snake " Slytherin ". We got a stunning male for our girl from Life Style Pet Hyper to be the father of this batch of babies. I must say, he is MASSIVE and thank you to Rob and Ian for allowing him to come stay with us for a few days. We'll.keep you all updated.
