Have they spawned?

[monroe0704]

Yey!!! How exciting :D I hope for many more embraces and eggs so you have a nice buffer of eggs to work with :)

[Miggy10]

yeah!!! she drops like 3-7 eggs per embrace and they have been at it for almost an hour

[Miggy10]

and they are still going at it!!

[monroe0704]

Lol ya they could spawn over many many hours. Mine spawned for 4, but I've heard as high as 8 hrs!

[Miggy10]

I hope you have a good daddy fish and he does a great job with the eggs.

[monroe0704]

I hope you have some babies soon :) what you starting them on food-wise? I always like to hear how other breeders go about their business!

[Miggy10]

some bbs and i have some live plants in the breeding tank so i think there will also be some natural food in there

[monroe0704]

Yey infusoria :) I don't usually have that ready to go, but for my next spawn I think I'm going to plant the tank so I do!

Remember to get pics if you can ;)

Congrats on the eggs!
I think infusoria is the best and easiest way to insure your new babies aren't going to starve.
