Alan Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 BG, Have you tried taking those eggs out, put into same sort of water, aeration BY the eggs, and a little methylene blue, to see if they will hatch?? Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 Has it occurred to you it might be the rock that has laid the eggs? Hmm? Where do you think sand comes from? :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm :roll: I can read But I've had a little experiance at breeding fish. :-? Some (fish) are extremely hard to sex at the best of times, unless you are "johnny on-the-spot" when they are spawning, and NOTE which one, or both are laying. It is possible that they are swing spawning, so ID marks are needed to be noted on both fish. This method of removing the eggs before they are eaten, and hatched or attempted to hatch, proves beyond doubt, or almost, that there is, or is not, a male present. I do know N. rachovii are very eay to sex tho. :evil: Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fins Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 Yes N. rachovii are easy to sex. The problem is telling female notho's apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
