Oh. I just feed them frozen bloodworms twice a day and do complete water changes every other day.

Thats a lot of food man.

Thats big enough....:]. He did great!!

Sounds like it might be big enough. He may work on it some more.

So Im trying to figure out the how much time I need free to introduce her. I have to introduce her in her vase, she should stay in there for about 24 hours right. Then I release her and give them time to spawn that should take about 3 hours up to 24. Then, I need to be there again in about 48 hours for when the fry are free swimming, Im wondering if I could start now and introduce them tomorrow after school, that would be about 19 hours.

I wish I hadnt wasted all weekend, he had this nest early yesterday but I didnt think it was big enough.

Edit: and yah, I figured when I put her in the vase he would give it some more work, he ddnt even start it until then last time.

I'm wondering if you could go ahead now with putting her in the vase and introducing her now. It might make him work more on the nest and she should be safe in her vase.

[IonBaller07]

Yah, I think I might. Then release her late tomorrow.

[dramaqueen]

That might work. Is school out yet?

[IonBaller07]

For the summer? We dont get out until June 12.

[dramaqueen]

They're out here in 2 more weeks.

I introduced her, my male is acting different than last time, I dont know if its in a good way, he runs up and flares at her then runs a few laps around his tank. Im hoping he trying to show her his nest, or that hes fit enough to mate, and not that he has just lost his mind, lol. She is doing the same as last time by trying to get to him through the glass. The thing is last time she was trying to get to him through the glass and by the time I left them in there for 24 hours she wanted to get away instead.
