Unsuccessful

Breeding Report: Aphyosemion bochtleri
Location code: GWW 86-11
Water conditions: Moderately soft and acidic, 16-19oC
Spawning Method: Long term (fry appear with adults)
Breeding problems: Poor egg production
Sex ratio: Roughly equal
Breeding difficulty: Difficult
Success: Fairly unsuccessful
Other Comments: I didn't have any problems with aggressive behavior (couple in 15 L. tank, heavy planted). Egg production is low and eggs fungus on peat, so I have more succes with leaving the eggs in the tank and netting the young fish out.
