Wok Posted January 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Thanks rabbit. They are now nearly swimming all around the tank. Had to take out the other 2 Jack dempseys in the tank too Now the tank has the Jack Dempsey parents and some GBA's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discusguru Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Congratulations Wok! By the way, are you selling any daphnia or swap them for something? cheers, ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted January 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 I could have a little scoop around for you Discus Guru. Should be enough for you to get your own culture going reasonably quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Congrats! Hopefully soon we'll be able to register the breeding Any signs of spawning from the jags? Cheers, Sarah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted January 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 The Jags look promising they have been doing a lot of excavation work as well as cleaning their piece of schist. So fingers crossed it won't be too far away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wok Posted January 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 The number of free swimming baby Jack Dempseys has dropped dramatically. Can only see around 15 at the moment Have to wait and see i guess. :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaxxnz Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Congrat! again Wok for the second sprawn, just wondering was it EBJD x BGJD sprawn? or jst standard JD?, Iam still trying to get hold of a male EBJD to sprawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Unfortunately I can't afford the lovely electric Blue jack dempsey, mine are only the normal jack dempsey I lost the second lot of fry now Anyone have ideas on how to stop this, the tank is not planted. Would a piece of paper covering the front of the tank help stop spooking the parents? :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
