This forum is what I consider the brain trust of forums when it comes to people with diverse knowledge. So anyone with fish farm or just experience breeding semi-commercial scale numbers of barbs and tetras please help me.
I've been told you spawn the fish indoors and transfer the fry, or adults are spawned in large groups in small cages and the fry left to develop and told yet again that you just supply leaves and plants and fry will survive.
I have a 4 month growing season here in Missouri and have successfully spawned / produced several types of livebearers, cory cats-just tossed in the adults- crayfish and killies. This year I'd like to try some barbs and tetras but due to space limitations need to be confident I can pull it off.
All that said, please P.M. me or add to this thread. I've spawned all kinds of barbs and tetras in tanks but never on a large scale.
