who here has bred them successfully?

I have 2 that have paired up and have spawned a few times but every time they do, the eggs dissapear slowly over a couple of days.

Does it take them a while to get it right or is something getting to the eggs when the lights are out?

There are also synos in there, could they be eatting them?

Syno's be your ptoblem

yep- Ice cream for syno's

Thanks guys, I had a feeling they would be getting in there. I have got 2 leleupi in their own tank now but their eggs are pretty much gone. Hopefully they will continue and I hope I caught the right male.

i used to breed quite a few. bad parents so take the eggs out and airate with some methBlue. feed newly hatched brine shrimp once free swimming..

I beleive in leaving the parents with the eggs to do it naturally but if they eat them in their own tank then I will have to remove them and raise them myself I guess. What would be the best way to keep the eggs aerated when they are are in a deep hole in coral rock? Just put a powerhead pointed towards the hole?

just put an airstopne near the eggs to ensure that there is water movement. powerhead mite be too powerful

Give them lots of white worms in between spawning it conditions the female well.

Thanks, Ive already figured out whiteworms condition them well. Im now waiting for her to spawn again, Hopefully it won't take too long.
