mumzy50 Posted June 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 Thanks Stu,not many babies from this spawn,very disappointed put the female in five days ago,and they did not seem interested.The male had not built a nest,and was nasty.Mitzy came round to day and i got her to check the nest.The babies were free swimming so must of had them three or four days ago,probley about twenty or thirty left im real bumb out i was looking forward to this spawning as i have waited a long time for these females to be ready.

ChocGourami Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 My dwarfs normally hatch in about 24 hours of spawning. I've got both reds and honey dwarfs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitzy Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 My dwarfs normally hatch in about 24 hours of spawning. I've got both reds and honey dwarfs. They were real tiny smaller than her honeys and orange ones so mumzy couldn't see them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumzy50 Posted June 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 They were real tiny smaller than her honeys and orange ones so mumzy couldn't see them I might invest in a pair of decent glass one day,instead of warehouse ones.This is the second lot i have nearly lost.The first lot i throw out as i did not see them.Now i have more cyclops than babies as the parents ate them.Matbe i should go into breeding cyclops i can see them. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChocGourami Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 Yes very small. About the size of a brine shrimp egg. I'm amazed at how fast they can develop from an egg too hatching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a new male and female i had not breed from them before,and i was checking and seen no nest and he was so nasty to her.I was going to remove her and seen a few bubbles the size of a fifty cent peice and thought they had just started.Then mitzy had a look and said you have babies free swimming by then they had a lovely feast.I thought they would be bigger than my honey babies orange babies were.If I'm lucky i might have fifty babies left,could be more cant really see with having floating plants.
