Cool! Thanks for correcting my terminology! I'll keep an eye out for the eggs. I'll try to scrape them off and get them into my 2 gallon fish bowl with an air stone and M.B. Hey, I learned something today so today it was a good day! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Hey guys, in my community tank I have 3 Albino Cories and one of them looks pregnant. What do the eggs look like, and do they prefer to lay eggs on the glass? I have a whole bunch of white spots on my glass but I believe they are from the snails in the tank. I have Malaysian Trumpet snails and a...

Well, here they are. They are right at 30 days now. I'll probably transfer them this weekend. The 25 fry in the other tank are 1 week younger but are actually larger than these. Could it be because they don't have to share a as much food with their siblings? Anyway, I really appreciate the info...

Hey Andy, how are things going? Haven't been on to much lately. I have 3 sets of fry growing and they are all about 1 week apart. I figure about 200 in one tank that have survived with the parents. The other two have about 25 that have survived. They are the ones that I have hatched away from...

Okay, it just popped into my head and thought I'd ask. Thanks for filling me in? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Andy I don't know if this would be cost effective for you, but have you looked int a swamp cooler for your hatchery? I know they use them up in the high desert around 29 Palms California. Just a thought. I tried to pull the divider out today in my breeding tank and I thought all' gonna be...

I am sorry for you Andy! I get attached to all my fish and I know how hard it is when they die. One question on the divider in the tank. How long do I leave it in the tank. It just arrived and I'm going to put it in. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Can I put two breeding Angels in a 10 gallon. They keep spawning every 7 days. Could be because I keep taking the eggs out and trying to raise them in the 10 gallon. That is the only tank I have right now and I won't have time or money to get more for at least a month or two. I'll be splitting...

Thank you Andy. They are back to acting normal again. Just floating around the fry. Will deprecating them cause any problems with them spawning? Are angels monogamous? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Andy, for some reason the male in my tank that have finally allowed their fry to live is attacking the female. I mean with malice! He's chased her away from the fry to the other side of the tank. The only thing to change is I just completed a water change. Is this normal or may I have a problem...

Thanks Andy, that helps a lot! I had the bubbles going up the slate over the eggs. They eventually fell off the slate, but they did hatch, and quite a good size hatch too! There swimming free in the 10 gallon. I have the parents in a tank right next to 10 gallon and they JUST laid another batch...

Sounds good Andy. I'm not sure if they're going to survive. Not to much movement for awhile now. But I'm learning with each batch. Hoping maybe these parents will start raising there fry instead of eating them. The LPS owner was surprised I had so many fish and that they were raised in with the...

Your right, no other fish. I thought that's what was supposed to be done. So I can just put the slate in the tank itself as long as there are no other fish or fry there. When you say water changes. Are you talking about the bowl with the fry? Can I just slowly pour the bowl out into the main...

They're in a 10 gallon aquarium in a 2 gallon glass fish bowl. The aquarium has a little more than 5 gallons of water in it and the bowl has 2 gallons in it. If all the fry hatch there should be around 50 or so. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Andy, when do you release the fry from the hatching bowl into the tank? They are just starting to get ready to free swim so I think all is going well at this point and my main breeders are doing well with their eggs again. Just hope my Phillipian Blues start breeding in a few months , but that's...

Ok. I have Seachem bags I found online. There 22" long and only 8" wide. I'm figuring maybe 10 per bag. They'll only be in there for 2-3 hours. Is that ok? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Andy, I'm taking my first fish to the pet store. They are buying all my first batch. Around 100 fish are still alive and VERY healthy! What would be the better, more professional way to deliver them. In several 5 gallon buckets with air stones in them or in separate bags. And if in bags, how...

Okay. I'll check it out. I thought this was going to be a easy, simple operation. Yeah RIGHT!!!? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Well, my pair that had the first successful spawn did it again today! I'm going to try and see if they will have some more success. They've spawned twice before, after they raised their first group, but it looked like daddy was shooting blanks. All the eggs turned white both times. If it happens...

Another thing, is it ok for these two to spawn so often. They do it about every 2 weeks. Give or take a day. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Andy, I'm back from Texas. My Dads about as good as could be expected. Hey my one breeding pair, the ones I've taken to calling cannibals, spawned again today. I took the slate out and put it in a 2 gallon fish bowl inside a 10 gallon aquarium. I've got heaters in the aquarium to keep it up to...
