Aquarium Advice FINatic
Its been a while since I've complained about this.
Why wont they breeeeeed!!! Im actually getting upset at them lol, is it normal to be mad at a fish?
1x 5.5" male
2x 3" female
1x 2" unknown sex
Fankmates are a Syno and 2 Firemouths, presumably both male. They tend to all leave the other species alone. Although the biggest Texas is the boss, so sometimes he chases the FMs.
Lots of big flat rocks, lots of driftwood, places to hide in the jumbles of rock and wood. They tend to stay in the open and don't retreat that often.
I used to see breeding colors on the females as they "flirted" with the male. Not anymore, to my knowledge. The male gets a darker back half after feeding, but its not as dark as breeding dress.
So yeah? Is it the male? That is my assumption... If it is i will keep him and get rid of all the other Texas except one female, and get rid of the Syno (just cause it isn't CA.)
Ive done warm WC, ive done cold. Ive fed lots of bloodworms and freeze-dried shrimp and krill. Fliating pellets, sinking pellets, shrimp pellets, carnivore pellets. Tropical flakes sometimes.
Water params are normal, its cycled obviously. PH is maybe 7.6? Last time i checked it was, should be the same now. Wasn't very long ago.
Any suggestions?
Sent from my bed, the only space available to me that isn't smothered in dirty laundry or aquariums.
