Hi all, I have another question. I noticed that one of my male M. Praecox
seemed to be trying to attracting attention over some java moss. Upon closer
inspection i noticed 3 small clear globes i assume to be eggs. Is this
infact the case as this if the first time i have tryed to breed anysort of
rainbow. The globes were smallbut just visible to the naked eye. the problem
i presentto you all is this...
I have two P. Signifer in the tank and i think the male might be
eating the eggs ( if that is infact what they were ) and after i found the
eggs a bristle nossed catfish passed by and the eggs dissapered when i tryed
to find them again. Either the bristle nose ate the eggs or they fell of the
moss. Therefore here are the questions..(sorry, more than one) 1)How
adhesive are the eggs???
2)should i move the P. Signifer or the M. Praecox ( i only
have 2 tanks one withe the rainbows an a 2ft full of guppys)
3)how could i go about raising the eggs/fry assuming i can
find anymore.
That will do for now.... Thanks for any help ;-)
