killifan Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 are "White Cloud Mountain Minnows" the same thing as Mountain Minnows? Are they easy to breed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livebearer_breeder Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 Probably the easiest of all egg-layers to spawn and rear. place up to three males and six females ina breeding tank, these breeders should be well fed. white clouds breed more or less continuasly on a daily bases, laying eggs on plants etc, and neither eating the eggs nor generally the fry, the fry will be found at or near the suface or swimming between the plants and can be removed to a rearing tank with a teaspoon. the young will be large enought to eat baby brine shrimp, young white clouds ressemble neon tetras and are quite pritty.

killifan Posted October 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 how do I tell males from females? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 Males have better colors, better fins, and are slimmer than the females. The females lay the eggs too. Alan 104 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killifan Posted October 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 I presume then that the other fish would be eating any eggs off the java moss in the tank that the minnows would be laying their eggs on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
