How often do Kribensis breed for & what is the survival rate of the fry in the wild

Hi Again,

Again this is from my aquatics assignment, I need to know how long the Kribensis breed for and how long there brood last for in the wild.

Thanks again

Mel

Kribs breed every 4-6 weeks and pairs will stay together for life in many cases. Can't say how the fry do in the wild, but in tanks that are not community tanks you can expect a 90% or better survival rate. I seperate them from the parents at three weeks.
