Tiger Barbs

[maxst2]

So... I have mating Tiger Barbs it seems.

Too bad I don't have my 55 gallon setup yet.

Any advice on this? I have 3 tiger barbs in a 5 gallon, and just noticed today two of them mating. Only other critters in the tank are 3 ghost shrimp. Think the fry could survive the hatch and if i can put them in a fry net cage dealy?

Always give it a shot, worst comes to worst the eggs/fry dont make it. There will always be another time...

Nice Max. I would experiment if you know what i mean. Try to leave the eggs in there and once they are born put them into a breeding net or something

I dunno the first thing to do for tiger barb fry / breeding. Anyone know a good site that has a nice write up?
