Are you going to start removing the eggs or try to let the parents raise

If they were the only fish in the tank, I'd give them a shot at it
first.
However, they'er not.
They spawned Sunday (8 days after the last spawn).
I should start seeing if the 2 males did a better job at fertilizing
soon.
There's only a few non fertile eggs that I can see this morning, but
it was the same way with the last spawn.
So I should later tonight or by tomorrow morning if the boys figured
it out yet.
I want so badly to run to the local shop (nearby town) and tell the
owner I have a proven pair of blacks spawning, so get ready! lol
I have to resist though. I don't even know if these boys can get the
fertilizing right, and until I have wrigglers I'm not giving hope to
somebody yet. I know he's been waiting as long as I have for good
angels around here, and he's been bugging me for years for angels and
bettas. = ) I know I'd have no problem with selling off the
offspring.
=====================
Then go for it! :-) Here the chains can't buy fish from people like us
and they're squeezing out the mom and pop places. AquaticCritter in
Nashville sometimes buys from private people. His fish are the best there
are, but a little high for us these days. My husband has been semi-retired
for a year and just retired for good last month. So I'll have to go where
the prices are best. Most likely the nearby PetsMart and PetSupermarket. PS
has the lowest prices, healthy fish but a smaller selection.
