So this is my first real breeding project and i thought i'd turn it into a journal. The chosen fish are Green Terrors. I know GT's are supposed to be fairly easy to breed, but i think they are lovely looking fish and don't want to be jumping into the deep end. This is also the first time i've kept a large species of fish.
The fish are about 2-3" at the minute, temporarily living in a 3ft tank, along with my tetra and barbs. There obviously a bit too young to sex, but in my unexpirienced opinion one is definately a male. He's much larger and has a slightly different shaped head. Also, im sure that i read male's get blue spots on there fins as they mature? Eitherway, he/it has blue spots showing through (see pics below). When i first introduced them in the tank he was very dominant, chasing the smaller one everytime he saw it. This has changed a lot, and they are often swimming around together.
They are currently been fed three times a day. Morning and evening they have flake, and in the afteroon they get pellets. So far i've been giving them live food once a week. Is this ok? They really do have a big appetite, and i'm sure it won't be long until i'm forking out for there new house.
Here's a few pictures....

Thankyou for looking
