These kamfaMonkeys came from member Ozzie
Date born is unknown but i received them around some holiday like memorial day or labor day of 2007 when they were the size of your fingernail.

The father and if picture is false, do correct please.

When they were in my tank but only 2 made it. The two strongest that raped the other 3.

They grew up so slow for being kamfas

Black on the dorsal fin could be female but I'm a skeptic for no eggs or tube dropping yet.

I'll see if I can test breed them with my f2zz fry and see where it'll lead. Kamfas, white eyes and are highly infertile but we'll never know until we breed them.

feel free to add your fish to the database.

i think it is important that we do make a database because most fish stories are being told by memory and that too is inaccuate.

We have the technology so why not use it to our advantage? Chart it in writings for the next generation of fh hobbiest to trace a fish and who knows, it might reflect back to you and your name will go in history.

i did what big dogg said and not to change water too often since kamfa likes old dirty water?

well 1 of them got duck lip and hith

and the other one is heading that was as well but is still under treatment and I think he'll make it. He has a kok coming along for a kamfa and slowly development indeed.

Treating for duck lip with water about 2.5 gallon and half a package of Ethyrcinderabscdss or something like that per dose. Temperature is hot and a dash of rock salt. Dosing every 24 hour and changing water every other day. It said on the package for 4 doses and the treatment is done. 48 hours more to go. woot woot

Kamfas generally grow slower than ZZ's. all my kamfas have been slow growers.

it could also be the gene since they are hybrid and if you continue to take a hybrid and cross it many times, the gene will get weaken right? Fish immune system gets weaker too I suppose.

I'm pulling analogy from the recycle of newspaper that once you recycle it, the fiber gets weaker and weaker.

I also read somewhere that some diseases is external and internal so if it is internal then by me feeding them with not a variety of feed will cause them diseases to break out. So inconclusive but I do notice something though. Every freaking fish I feed with that one can of dry shrimps fall victim to diseases.

More trial and error experiments to be conducted and I'm taking the dry shrimp diet out of this kamfa monkey.

kamfa grow slow? Well he sure has. Does he like aged old water like mountain dew color? Yes he sure does but not for the fainted at heart. LOL

I came home after a 3 months of retreat so that means 3 months of not changing the water and I do noticed how the fish grew bigger and the kok is coming out more. Not only that but take a look at the forehead area. It looks like he's fading. The lips are like parrot beak where it is yellow then the area of the head is red then the body is a golden base color.

I have a surprised for ya. Well the biggest fish at the time of the chimpanzee line is a female so I breed it with this kamfa monkey and load and behold, I now have a plateful of eggs. Fertile or infertile? It is their both first time so who knows.

He has white eyes though and it sounds infertile. We'll have to see if he's fertile in a few days.

more updates on this guy

He's breeding or perhaps I'm sucking all of them good juices out of him thus why his kok is still sad.

Posted Image

now his second breeding project, I let him breed with a parrot. So you now have 2 part parrot and 1 part gm. What the outcome? I don't know but eggs coming soon.

Posted Image

I also have other crazy breeding projects so I'll just add them here too

How about a parrot and my chimpanzee fry? He's smaller than the parrot.

This one is questionable since the locking lip action, the parrot is carrying the zz all over the place. He failed the strength test so no breeding? I don't know

Posted Image

Last but not least, how about 2 parrots going at it? My not so white eye male parrot and a smaller blood parrot. They sure love each other though. I don't know the outcome but I think I'll be getting some kamfa golden servernm (sp?)

Posted Image

I'll surprise you guys with the outcome later.
