After 2 days I fed the fry micros for 3 days and then on to golden pearls 100-200 mic and bbs. For the parents mostly BBS, daphnia and grindals. For best results feed Your grindals quality food such as Omega one, kensfish color formula or NLS. These are 10 day hatches in water, but up to 17 days on peat. Water hatched 100%, peat is around 70%. Add blue meth or acriflavin to water to prevent fungus on eggs. In a large 30 gallon plus planted tank, they can be kept with Rams and other killies. | | Date this record created: 17th October 2006 | Breeding date: 6th October 2006 | | Breeder: John Clark | Location: Saskatchewan Canada |
