peacock finally pregnant!!!!!! i think lol - Aquarium Advice

mr funktastic · 05-14-2006, 11:24 PM

ok well i have had a male and female peacock for a while now and they never seemed to be interested in each other. i went away for the weekend and came back to what i thought would be all very hungry fish. well i fed them and watched them all eat like usual but the female didnt come. so i took a closer look and it appears that there is a bulg in her mouth so i think she is finally spawning. i will geta pic later. i just thought i would spread the good news.

Congrats! What kind of peacock do you have?

mr funktastic · 05-15-2006, 08:14 PM

i forget the kind it is. i got a pic of her though. i will take a pic of the male tonight to hopefully. i have 2 males and only 1 female so i have 2 possible fathers. they are both very very similiar though. this is the best pic i could get of her casue she is hiding alot.

all the best with them..

not sure if it's the photo but she looks very skinny as well.
how old is she?

**Zagz** · 05-16-2006, 12:36 AM

She does appear to be holding. Congrats!

mr funktastic · 05-16-2006, 08:21 AM

not sure exactly how old but i bought her about 4 months ago. she is about 2 - 3 inches. she is pretty well rounded. she seems to have bulked up before she took on the eggs. i am going to let her spit in the main tank the first few times to let her get used to breeding then i will try getting her out. i hope everything goes well
