Ira Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 Wierd, how big was the oscar? I wouldn't have expected them to be that aggressive. When my two gay severums were trying to breed they weren't nearly that aggressive. But, being males they didn't have any eggs, they were just guarding a hole they'd dug.

Joze Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 I have a persistently brooding female and an infertile male (well not milting anyway), took the female and a known fertile male and put them in a tank on their own, I also took away anything secure that they could hide in, next week the terracotta pipes go back in.

bandit Posted June 19, 2004 Report Share Posted June 19, 2004 my pair of golden severums layed about 12 times before they got it right and the male got so aggresive defending the young that he killed his mate defending them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
