Breeding in pond water like that worked very well for me my major problem was dragon fly larva eating my fry. I left daddy in and he ate most of them but one larva can do a spawn a lot of harm.
I would NOT be able to put my babies into pond water... I'm too much of a germ freak. "HE'S GOING TO BE EATEN ALIVE BY THE PLAGUE GERMS THAT I JUST KNOW ARE IN THAT WATER!" ... Though, it actually sounds like it's much better for them then being raised in unnatural water. Your fry probably won't get sick as often as adults.
Nothing wrong using brackish water, but I would check the chemistry for high nitrates. No sense starting at the wrong end of the scale. I create my own aged brackish water in a 50 gallon plastic trash can with Indian almond leaves and conditioner.
The pair just breed
Yeah forgot to mention that I don't have a heater in the tank
Breeding blind on the temp
Have three extra but want to do it as nature as possible
The day temp is above 90 n at night it's in the high 60
Yeah my pond is all plant n no fish
Small amount of water change to much
I think the temp went up to high n cook the egg
Going to try again but inside this time
