Barrie Posted March 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Paul, I may possibly be able to help with a couple but will have to wait to see the sex of the 3 fry I have at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserole Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 I always found them low producers, even the original breeding stock. Some days I'll collect 10 eggs from my breeding group( 1 male 6 females) most days non = NOT EVEN 1 DEAD EGG. I have 11 fry( EDIT 2 just hatched ) and collected 3 eggs today, even though the group love to hide under the 3 full length mops I have bunched together in their tank. Go figger >> what are they doing under there :roll: cause it ain't spawning. I was feeding them lots of mozzy wrigglers at one stage( and I do mean LOTS ), It made no differance, same results as a good quality flake :-?

Barrie Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 MMm I feed a lot of mozzies as well and blood worms but at the moment, their is no interest at all... not an egg I was going to pin up center folds for them to look at but I doupt that would work either Ive now taken everything except the filter out of the tank and will see what happens in a week or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserole Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 I wonder if it's too hot for them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 It must be something to do with Easter. I have had 3 trios of choc australies set up for over a week without one egg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrie Posted March 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 All I normally breed is about 10 or 12 as all Im trying to do is turn them over and keep em goin Must admit that with nothing in their tank except for the filter, its good to see them out n about. Im also going mto try a smaller mop so the females cant play hard to get by hiding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
