I think you're talking about linebreeding back to pure.

It's possible but not really a good idea.

it can be done in the wild so its just a case of replicating the conditions in a tank or pond :) hormones will just speed things up :)


Thanks Johnno.

Can you or somebody else give me a step by step guide to using the hormone?

I'm fairly sure I understand it, just want to be sure.

Is it:

1, Check for egg maturity
2, Once eggs are mature, inject recommended dosage of Ovaprim.
3, After a week (?) strip the milt and eggs of the fish together in a bowl/put the fish together for a natural spawn.

That's just what I've got so far....

I've spoken a bit with a few guys in QLD who breed Catfish and I've got some good tips.

I was really just wanting some more specific details, such as what those breeders would be able to tell.

At least now I know it can be done!
