livingart 449 Report post Posted November 7, 2017 Breeding Chocolate Fish Cocoa pisces (deliscioso) I recently managed to acquire a trio of Chocolate fish to try breeding with, A melanistic male, a normal female and an albino female. Breeding Tank parameters. Minimum size 100 litres Temperature under 18 centigrade otherwise they get soft and lethargic. PH neutral to soft. I used chocolate sprinkles as substrate and fed them Cadbury Flake food to condition them for breeding. These fish usually spawn in caves laying a large egg mass which the male guards for7 days before they hatch. Egg mass. Once the fry hatch I remove the parents just in case they are tempted to eat them. Picture of newly hatched fry. I feed the fry fine particles of food, this is easily achieved by grating a chocolate bar on a kitchen grater. I hope this article helps you achieve breeding these sweet fish. Fry ready for sale. 5 Colour_genes, hovmoller, Silverdollarboy2 and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
