lambo Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 A friend of mine has a small tank and has had bristlenoses breed successfully in there,of which I was given 6 for my tank. Now in this tank he has a couple of very large sae's, and I thought they looked very fat/fatter than I'd ever seen them before. The larger one of the two jumped out of the tank yesterday and they picked him/her up and chucked him/her back in straight away. A little later on they saw what looks like "orange caviar sized eggs"(their words) floating around in the tank. I haven't been round for a look yet, but was wondering if this sounds like the sae's have bred? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 BNs have large orange eggs. Don't know what colour SAE eggs are or if they breed in tanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 I'd day they were BN eggs as the blow around the tank when they get pushed out the cave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lambo Posted November 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 :oops: That sounds like a more logical answer, I haven't bred bn's myself so i wasn't able to say for sure. Sounds like he has some really fat sae"s and more baby bn's on their way :lol: Thanks for your help 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 My understanding is that there have been reports of SAE breeding in captivity but have to be around 3 4inch. Id go with BN to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
