Today I would like to share with you what I have in mind to culture some filamentous algae and feed them to the fish to ascertain the benefits these fish may derived after a period of consumption.Filamentous algae are used in this project because I do not use green water and is readily available at my disposal…courtesy of my koi pond.

These can be seen from the pics below that they are CLIFF HANGERS and all I need to do is to tear them away and feed them directly after cutting into minute pieces.

Ok finally the results are out.As only 5 members responded in the participation we can't possibly derive much from this experiment neither can we conclude convincingly the findings.Nevertheless I try to decipher what is available from the received data.Most would use color as the only feature to compare the outcome.
As seen from the data sheet 10 fishes were examined and put through the test.7 were fed with algae and only 3 are not fed.(not 5 ,5 as expected)All 3 not fed with algae were from SV and all of the presented TVR were fed.
From the input from participating members most score 80% and above except for 1 obvious sore thumb scoring a mere 50(wat happen cp?)
Desireless had the best score with 9 out of 10 (Give him a big clap.gif clap.gif clap.gif )while all three matrix,bluk and gohks did equally well with 80% score.All have no problem in spoting basket D,F and J with the correct answer.Only desireless seems to agree basket B are fed while the rest failed to recognise this.G and H gave mixed reactions.Another interesting finding is Desireless fail only in the basket (basket I )which most agreed it was fed.

So I leave the rest for others to draw their own conclusion from the attached limited biodata.
