Egg laden Krib


Carlos & Siran

Recommended Posts

We purchased two kribs today from a tank full of them, taking our time we easily found a female but the male took a bit more time to be sure, anyways after we got them home and transferred them we realised the female had a hugely distended belly and was probably egg laden, we've added a clay pot for her to lay them but are wondering what is going to happen with the male who is unlikely to be the father or her mate. Will they fight or will he try to eat the fry when they hatch?

Is another krib going to sneak in and fertilize them after she lays them?
