Kraylen Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I got dibs on a pair. Link to comment
177ichael Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 interesting so put a net over the eggs I find it hard to fo or maybe a picture would help My female is over 4 and a half inches she will knock it over she picks up rocks when i put them in there to piss her off . Id love for you to explain or post a pic for me with a pot it would seem hard to do I second using some type of a net. I don't have a pic of the wire mesh I used around the breeding cone with the Discus that I used to breed, but you can try doing that. If you get a breeding cone for this pair, get some wire mesh and wrap it around the cone once the eggs are laid (like a cylinder shape). The fish will be able to fan the eggs, but can't eat them. In my experience, once the fry hatch, the fish no longer ate them. Of course, it only works if the fish lays the eggs on the side of the cone, versus on top where the mesh would not cover... GOOD LUCK!! Link to comment

christosclowns Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 Ok here is the problem I see. First of all she is to big for the 4 inch pot, so Im gonna swap out pots next time to a 6 inch. Second of all the male is def retarded. He still has no clue what he is doing. I watched him off the camera and hes not even gliding on the eggs he is way off them and of course he started to eat them. Damn it guess ill have to see if he fertilized any and if theres any left. the video was short because i didnt want to piss her off lol enjoy and to top it off you can see in the video instead of fertilizing hes eating YOU SUCK YOU JAACKKKKKKASSSSSSSS LOL Link to comment

christosclowns Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 im gonna take eggs out put them in formaldahide and send them to a buddy to see if the cells are dividing in the eggs it will answer my question on fertility unless he just didnt fertelize so then I wouldnt get a solid answer so frustrating but this hobby is all about patience Link to comment

christosclowns Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 Well just like I thought almost all the eggs were gone today. I have some under incubation but well see what happens, I also took eggs out and put them in rubbing alcohol and im sending them to a buddy of mine whos going to put them under a microscope to see if there was fertilization. Well have to see again in ten days what happens. That was clutch number 5 that he ate Link to comment
