Possibly the most
deeply colored of the Xenotoca doadrioi populations, the San
Marcos
is a new introduction here, and numbers are just beginning to
pick up.
Better videos are being worked on as the first generation begins
to color
up. These are the original fully colored breeders.
Select Aquatics Presents: X. doadrioi
and Swordtail length
This video looks at the care, temperment and
behavior of the Xenotoca doadrioi, a very
beautiful, easy to keep Goodeid. Questions beautiful, easy to keep Goodeid.
Questions discussed in this video include goodeid temperature
preferences and
swordtail comparisons between the Xiphophorus species maintained here..
The Xenotoca doadrioi
is a hardy, beautiful, distinctively shaped goodeid that can
tolerate
a
range of temperatures, though it does best in the lower 70s.
Fairly prolific, their numbers
will increase even though they are prone to eating their
fry, but they will do best when the
female is removed to a separate tank, and the
fry are raised separately.
Best kept in a colony tank, they are well
behaved with one another.
