Got 2 adult climbing perch from a friend. The biggest one had only one eye!! but they both looked healthy.
Now I have to look for a few more to increase the chances of having both sexes. I could buy them from the local fish shop but rather not. Better to get them from the villages or from someone rearing them.
In the pond now are...
- 2 climbing perch
- a handful of baby guppies. Hopefully they become food for the perch.
- some floating plants, also a source of food for the perch.
- banana leaves for shade
- indian almond leaves for the fish health
- netting to prevent the perch from jumping
An hour later...
Looks like they have settled in fine.
