breeding

  My first litter of guppy fry were born yesterday - a great surprise when I got home!    I had put momma in her breeder net, since she seemed squared off with a dark gravid spot. She wasn't lethargic, but I gave it about 2 days and it paid off!   She gave birth to about 10-13 babies, and I...

  I have four (what I THOUGHT were male) ram cichlids in a tank, along with a neon tetra and a plecostomus. There's nothing else in the tank except snails (and I KNOW what snail eggs look like). I just saw today that the back of my small piece of driftwood is covered in eggs! I thought ram...

Hey everyone! I'm looking for ideas on a small fish to breed in a 15g tank. I'm looking for a fish that will raise their fry, or at least somewhat participate in raising the fry. Currently breeding Multies in a 20g long and German Blues in a standard 55g. Any ideas would be appreciated!

Hey everyone. I'm looking to scope out options for a few new tanks I have cycling. I want to breed livebearers, but I'm looking for breeds that are commonly accepted by some local fish stores. I know most stores won't take guppies, but what about platies, mollies or swords? Are there any other...

Ok, I don't know if I can put this here but if I can't just delete it. How do you ship a angelfish pair? In one bag? In two bags? I just can't figure this one out. Help?

Hello! In my 55g tank I have 3 pairs of German rams. Two pairs of German blues and one pair of electric blues. My most dominant pair seems to have laid eggs today. They've been paired for about two weeks, and its my first time keeping rams, so I have a couple questions.   First, what kind of...

Hey all. Looking to get 4-6 Kuhli Loaches in my tank. It's a breeder tank, and the reason for my post is I'm curious if they would be a potential threat to eggs/fry. It's a 55g tank with 3 pairs of German rams in it. One pair of electric blues and 2 of German blues. I just retired my common...

So, in my 55g tank I have 3 pairs of German rams. Two pairs of German blues and one pair of electric blues. My most dominant pair seems to have laid eggs today. They've been paired for about two weeks, and its my first time keeping rams. Curious about what kinds of food can be fed. Would...

Hey guys, I know the majority of you reading this probably only clicked on this to discourage me or tell me not to, but for those that aren't: The other day i got a new tank and instantly wanted more discus, as they are my favorite fish and the one i've kept for the longest, but then i...

I have been trying to breed my white female betta for some time now and none of males seem to have an interest in her. It made me wonder, are male bettas stimulated into breeding through visual signals only and would this effect her chances of breeding becuase her vertical stripes cannot be...

So, I have 5 German Blues. I'm not sure whether they're male or female. I've read all of the signs for them being each sex, but all of my rams have traits on each side. One with a high spiked dorsal, but it also has black on its pelvic fin, and small amounts of blue on the outside of its black...

Hi, I have three adult assassin snails in my 70ltr tank at the moment that I bought about 4-5 months ago to deal with a pest snail problem I was having at the time. Between the snails and large water changes, they done their job, so i'm glad I got them. This morning, I spotted a baby assassin...
