Hi there, my problem is probably pretty silly actually. I purchased a male Siamese fighter (beta) and two females to keep him company on friday. Today I noticed a bit of activity between one of the females and the male.. I went out and voila... bubble nest filled with eggs.... Auugghh I am in a panic now, what do I do???? this is a community tank, besides my beta's I have 1 dwarf flame gourami, 5 neon tetras, 3 white clouds, 2 1"angel fish, 1 sword tail (causing trouble with the male fighter so he is about to be sold off) 2 head and tail light tetras and 3 harlequin tetras. I have no idea of the gal size of my tank, it is 2.5ft by 1ft wide and a bit over 1ft tall. I have the temp set at 26 deg cel. and trying to keep the ph at 7 all the time.... Is there anyting I should do to help these fish??? I don't have another tank to seperate them into but I do have a floating hatchery thingy (not quite up to technical terms yet LOL)
this is a first for me. I have only had fishy inhabitants in the tank for 3 weeks... I was going to change some of the water today but don't think I will be doing that for a while... Oh and what should I correct the ph to?? At the moment it needs something, it is sitting on 7.2 and I am itching to get it back to ph7...
So many thing to think of now... can anyone help or point me in the right direction??? My LFS is closed until monday so feeling rather helpless at the moment.. Oh BTW I live in tasmania Aust and am yet to work out what some of the terminology being used here is about...
thanks in advance for you help...
