fattythecatty Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 I have 2 black neons, the remants of the original school of 6. 1 obviously female and 1 male. Over the last couple of days the females belly has increased hugely, to the point where I think she'll explode!! She's not ill so I'm guessing she may be full of eggs. I have a small tank set up and wonder if I should move the couple in there. It has poor lighting and I can add some extra plants but then what?

Luke* Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 I've bred black neons before, very fun. Best to seperate the male and female for 2 weeks and feed them on live and frozen foods. Then put them together in a well planted tank and put some peat in too (boil some up in a pot then let it cool and strain it in). The parents will spawn the next morning. Remove them after spawning. Keep tank dark for 72 hrs. Feed fry liquifry/infusoria then baby brine shrimp. Goodluck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
