I tried using blackbanded sunfish as substitutes this past year in my backyard garden pond. Found lots of chaetodon young but, alas, no welaka other than the original three adults. Maybe if I had a larger group to start with I might have had some success.

How did your Bluenose eggs/fry do? I've got 3 females and one male 2-3 yr olds I think. The females seem to be fattening up well in my basement. I had another male last yr and they were acting like they were in the mood but I never saw any eggs laid but the males were doing their displays and each female showed up skinny but no eggs to be found. I have some Bluespotted Sunfish I am conditioning, thought perhaps they might substitute for Longears. What do you think? Any other suggestions?
