20g Planted Tank

Well, thats too bad but its pretty common for a first spawn. Its really good though that you have a spawning pair. There will likely be more eggs.

sorry about the 1st batch, but they will be more experienced and you will be ready for the 2nd

I'm not sure the rams are even mature enough yet though... LOL they are really young.

I am working on drawing an aquascaping plan for the tank.

I am getting some neons today.

 

[maxwellag]

I got 6 of them. I couldn't find glowlight tetras. The neons are in quarantine. Sorry about the bad pictures

 

[absolutangel04]

Cool. I hope they do ok for you.

 

[maxwellag]

I got some duckweed, salvinia minima and water lettuce. A lot too.

 

[maxwellag]

I got some more pictures.

 

[absolutangel04]

Cool. I hope the duckweed works out for you. I have some, but I am not sure if I want to put it in the tank or not. Let me know how it goes!

 

[maxwellag]

I am on my way home from the LFS with 3 more glolight tetras. I will get 2 more neons eventually, so the schools of tetras are 8 each. I will post some pictures once I get them acclimated.

I was bored earlier so I took a picture of my male bolivian ram.

I was bored earlier so I took a picture of my male bolivian ram.

Looks great! I thought mine was a bolivian when we got it because he was so dull, but he colored up when he got home and we found out we got a GBR.

 

[maxwellag]

They laid more eggs! This time they're light brown. The male is guarding them.

Congrats! Are you going to attempt to raise the fry?

 

[maxwellag]

Congrats! Are you going to attempt to raise the fry?

No, I am gonna let the parents raise them.

 

[absolutangel04]

Cool picture! Congrats on another spawn.

 

[maxwellag]

They are their eggs again. I guess they are young and inexperienced.

Rams are notoriously bad parents, do you have the space to pull and hatch artificially?

I would if I moved my RCS breeding project to my 5G.
