cichlid7 Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I am looking at putting bristlenoses (3-4cm) in my killie breeding tanks is this a good or bad idea, eg. will the bristlenoses eat the eggs? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 if they go into the moss and find them they will eat them otherwise I would say no they wouldn't why do you want to keep BNs in there with them? I'm dying to know what killies you have :spop: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Gardneri yellows are sometimes called gold and the nigerianus we have here is also the gold variety. There is also the blue and P32?--I think that is the number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 If you do end up breeding them and look to sell some, I'd be very keen. I had killie breeding tanks pre feb quake and was just starting to get results. Lost virtually all my females in the quake. I have a display tank with a bunch of old males in it. Really would like to get back to having killie breeding tanks going again. After the quake I only had 1 usable tank left so I put all my fish in it. I managed to get some offspring but I now have no idea if they're cross bred or not. I really need to start fresh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
