Today my husband noticed my angel fish rubbing on the filter and showed me he saw eggs! YAY! I've never had any fish breed!
Before i start i read it's best to post this
1. Tank size: 60 gallons
2. Temperature:
3. pH, GH:
4. Conditioning (or what you've been feeding): feeding them live worms once a day and a little bit of flake food for my shrimp and rummy nose tetras
5. Fishes activity prior to spawning: normal. They seemed to be acting their normal selves
6. Selection of spawning site (if any): the filter
7. Anything you might have done to induce the spawn: nope, nada!
8. Pics are always great: see below! lol
I don't know much about breeding and I've started to do research but I'm hearing contradicting things. So I'm a bit confused!
I REALLY needed to do a water change yesterday, (%50 once a week) How can I do a water change? or should I not? The eggs are right at the top of the tank, an inch or two or so below the water line.
Will plecos eat the eggs? he loves my filter and im a bit worried.
I hear keeping the eggs in the dark is best, but I also hear keeping the light on 24/7 will keep the parents from eating the eggs.
I have a spare 36 gallon bow front tank that im trying to sell.. also a 10 gallon with betta which can be moved for now. Should I put them in any of those? if so when's best? should parents come too?
Uhh yea I'm just all kinds confused. Will try and do more research! >.<
