djvant Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 I have moved my silver dollars to a larger tank (2 females, 1 male & 2 juveniles), they have been in there for just over a week and one of the females has started spawning with the male. I collected some of the eggs out before the loaches ate them (they are now severely bloated from their feast). Most of the eggs have gone cloudy (presumably I have damaged them getting them out of the tank) about a quarter still look fine, so hopefully babies in a few days. Now that they have started spawning, how often will they do it and what’s the best way to get the eggs out without damaging them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matto Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 put some flat stones in and they might lay on them so you can remove them easier and put a air stone next to them and add some meth blue hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
