Hi All,
Well the third spawning took place, but the currents must of been too strong
in the tank. Many eggs have turned white. I will have to set up an
alternate tank. Is there a minimum height?
From the first and totally unexpected batch, 10 or so survived after
carefully being removed while at the wiggling egg stage. Three weeks
later, they are very active always looking for their favourite food....BBS.
When should I stop feeding them BBS? What to feed at that stage? Now in
their small 1 Gal tank (air stone = bottom draw filter) I have noticed
that there are very small white worms, or actually they look like white
miniature leaches. What are these? Some of the fry have eaten them. I am
thinking of transferring the fry to a 10 Gal planted tank with a real
filter. Suggestions? Is this a good idea.
Thanks for all your replies,
Much appreciated, this pair of fishes has changed my daily routine, very
exciting and interesting.
