@ShepsAquatics 2 жыл бұрын
If there are lots of places for the fry to hide they should be fine same as if there were in the wild. Just make Sure the water temp is between 18 to 26 Celsius. But for best results I’d say leave the adults in there for 10 days then remove them.

Great video - easily the best for Rosy Barbs breeding. We have established the same breeding tank setup as you - the barbs we’re in a communal tank prior. Do you really need to keep them in adjoining tanks for a week if the female looks ready to pop. I’m worried she’ll reabsorb the eggs.
@ShepsAquatics 3 жыл бұрын
No you don’t have to keep them separate at all. The reason I had them Separate was to show the difference between male and female in the video. They lay very morning so she won’t reabsorb the eggs. She will lay them. And make more each day.
