TM Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 Its a judgment call, hard to explain with words. If they are getting enough the will live. Make sure when you add the drops you mix it thru the tank a bit. After a few days start fe4eding bs, then you will be able to see full bellys.

skaffen Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 You don't want too many as they are not that easy to sell--a bit nippy. Only if you keep them in schools of five or less, in my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 You will have a lot less trouble rearing them if you feed them very well and give them lots of water changes as they will grow more at a uniform rate. That is why bbs is best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverBlade86 Posted September 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Sorry, been extremely busy the past week or so. Work and exams and what not. Sadly, all fry appear to have died. I was having trouble feeding them, and they didn't seem to be eating at all. They just slowly dropped of bit by bit till they were all gone. I'm gonna attempt to breed them again, this time in a smaller tank. Will make sure I get all the proper equipment ready before I try again.
