Tsarmina Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 i know that tetra eggs need darkness, but what about the heater light? will it be strong enough to do damage?? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HummingBird Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 That's actually not true, most tetra eggs are fine with light. I think it's just neons and cardinals that are photosensitive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserole Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 Yeah, mosts tetra's are not photosensitive, you didn't actually say what tetra? Either way the heaters light is fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsarmina Posted July 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 black widows and pristella for a start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserole Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 I didn't find Black widows light sensitive but they were prolific, hope you have a large raring tank, haven't deliberately spawned xray tetras so unsure but I don't think they are either.

Billaney Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 and pristella do not need the dark either , i've bred them a couple of time without having to darken out there tank, good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 I have bred both without worrying about the light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsarmina Posted July 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 thanks people. when i finally get my breeding tank back from the multitude of guppy fry in it, i'll try them again. i have recently got a long finned black widow and hope to breed from him. thanks again Tsar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
