Aquarium Advice Newbie
I ordered a breeding pair of gbr last october (10/20/13) and they proceeded to spawn once after two months. However the eggs were not fertilized and were eaten. They have since then never spawned, despite my efforts to achieve a perfect environment for them to breed. I have contacted Yunite, the company I purchased them from. They just instructed me to feed brine shrimp and blood worms on a regular basis (3-4 times per week). I have been doing this for several weeks and since I have started, the male is less interested in the female than it ever has in the past, only occasionally chasing as opposed to the last year. What can I do to help this? I don't know what else to do.
Thanks for any help!
