I'm breeding my Red Dragon Plakat( Male ) and Black & Blue Laced Crowntail ( Female ).

What's the benefit of breeding a plakat and a crowntail?

Will there be a chance that my Spawn will have armored( dragon scales ) ?

What will be the possible outcome?

Thank you!

My first spawn was posted here. Time for my second since I'll be sharing the offspring with my local fish breeder as thanks for selling the dragon.

No benefit. You are mixing tail types and will not get the best of either.

Might get a few scales of dragon. You need to do dragon x dragon to keep them.

Lots of multi type fish, some with the dragon type scales. Got a lot genetically going on so gonna be a wild card spawn. Good luck with the fry.

Ok! I'll just get the male buffed up till I find a female dragon.

Though how long till the male will be able to start breeding after a spawn?

Thank you for the reply.

If your asking how soon after a spawn can he be rebred two weeks is usually a good rule of thumb. But as always.. breeders tend to bend/break the rules depending on need.

Ok! 2 weeks it is!

I'll just breed my pure black and marble black HM then.

just wondering, I see fry on the bottom tank are they dead? i'm getting worried bout my first spawn.

For different ages of the spawn they might inhabit different areas of the tank. During a certain period of time they inhabit the bottom, then top, then they are finally all over

Will I remove dad?

[Mo]

You should have removed them when they were free swimming

[GreyHounD]

So when I see fry with tail and hanging around the leaves and bottom they are generally known as free swimmers?..


Sorry I'm inexperienced. Still didn't take out dad. And I see lesser and lesser fry.

But they don't look like moving.

If they are not moving they may possibly be dead. Really watch your ammonia. Need to do daily water changes even on young fry. It gets funky fast.
