I'm going to try this properly, I accidentally raised a load of danio when I did a water change and saw lots of tiny little chaps stuck to the sides of my bucket. Bunged them in a spare tank and there's about 20 adults in there now. I struggled to feed them with hatching BBS so will definitely try the infusoria. Cheers Mark.
@silverkiss375 жыл бұрын
I used to grow infusoria in a jar and then just pull some out with a syringe when I bred bettas. It worked really well! 😉 I just placed tank water in the jar, put like maybe some green beans (or something veggie lol), and then sat it in a window where sun would hit it. Usually took about a week at least for the infusion to develope. But before collecting I would sit a flashlight next to the jar because they're attached to the light. Once they're all in one area you can easily suck them up. 😋 I hope this helps you people! 💖

really cool to watch :) I have Celestial Pearl Danios and they have been spawning in their aquarium like crazy - but I wasn't too interested in breeding them since I had enough of them in there and they naturally kept eating all of their fry and eggs. A couple of weeks ago it was crazy hot here and over night 8 of my 12 fish had died. Saw the remaining 4 in the morning gasping for air and put them in my shrimp cube :( Luckily I still have 2 males and 2 females so hopefully I will be able to restock them so to speak once their original tank has recycled.

It seems the hardest part in breeding fish is to catch them in the community tank. Is that why you get a pair from the fish dealer? Anyway I was able to catch a couple of pairs of the five band barbs, they were quite easy to trick into the net. But it seems very difficult to get them to acclimatize in the breeding tank, they're scared and just stay in a corner or under a leaf, sometimes freakin' out. I used mostly tank water setting it up. Could it be the light being too bright (not brighter than the community tank)? Or is it just that they liked it so much in the community tank that they were disappointed being transferred to a whole new tank? I also used quite a lot of plants so they would feel safe, apparently that did not work out. I also put some peat under the gravel to have a bit of a softer, lower pH water. I have some peat pellets in the community tank filter so it should be familiar to them.

I've just got 6 Leopard Danios which when bigger I'd like to try to breed from - do these pair for life ? If so do i need to get the 'exact' pair out of the tank for breeding, or will any male & female breed together. Thanks again.

Hi... I wonder if you can give me some advice? I have 2 Danios because that's all I was allowed at the time due to tank size. The smaller, slimmer of the two has been hovering around this little ornament for a few days now; I was worried it was depressed so I've just upgraded their tank, but now I'm worried, maybe they had eggs? The gravel was black unfortunately, and I just tossed it out today because they're in their new tank. The other Danio is bigger and rounder and I suspect female. That one has been swimming around happy as larry, eating fine and occasionally swims behind the other and persuades it to swim (not aggressive or biting). Now they're in the bigger tank, the smaller hovering one seems like it doesn't know what to do. Swimming and exploring, but then sometimes just treading water. I know in the wild male fish typically guard eggs and will go without food to do so.... Do you think it was depressed or guarding eggs?

Also....can I trick the fish into thinking it's morning by making the tank dark for a few hours, and then turning on the lights? The reason I ask about this is so that I can control the spawn - I leave for work each morning before the sun is up...so if I make it completely dark at say noon....and light the tank up at 8pm....will they be tricked into spawning at that time?

Do you use a filter in the fry tank ?
@MARKSAQUATICS5 жыл бұрын
Hi Jacob. No filter is needed as the parents are only in the tank overnight and removed after spawning. Once the fry hatch out it will be another few days before they are free swimming and taking food. Once they have grown out a bit small 10% water changes with do.😊👍
