bigfishhead Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 I had this female breed serveral times. The first few times I did not bother to move her out of the main tank and fry did not survive. Last time about two month ago I put her into a breeding net and finally get some fry from her. 3 weeks ago I put her back to the main tank. She recovery pretty good and back to her colony alright. Last Sunday I found she is holding again just after I did water change on Sat and rerange the tank a bit, so changes always good .... Her mouth is full of eggs. As she just holding so Im thinking to move her to breeding tank after a week or two. Last night when I do the normal feeding. I watched her try to eat NLS pellet and spews out some eggs, she try to eat those eggs back, but other fish eat those dropped out eggs. She did it several times and now there is no eggs left in her mounth... :facepalm: I thought female fish will not eat during holding.... what is wrong with her? too hungery? her shape is back to normal size, i guess she recoved pretty good from last holding...
