#355869 Kadanga Egg Advice Needed

Posted by Bunky twincam on 13 October 2016 - 05:12 PM

The eggs are yellow, I have had the fish since fry and they are in a large tank, the male is very placid and I have stripped eggs many times before and had success but sometimes they just go white and get a fungus, I have increased the air flow in the tumbler.

Once again they have bred, so I have removed them from the big tank and put the parents and fry into a small tank, so far all is good :)

#348746 Babies :)

Posted by Bunky twincam on 17 January 2016 - 06:08 PM

Hello all,

 

Just did my weekly water change on the 6 foot tank and a few hours later was just looking to see how my new Silver Dollars that were bought today were doing and what the F--K there was my Princess swimming around trying to ward off several very large sharks and some other cichlids.

 

A mad panic as my daughter watched on, sucked the babies out with a tube and into a small tank they go.

 

Hopefully they will survive.

 

Cheers

#345903 My First Cichlid Babies, What Now?

Posted by Bunky twincam on 19 October 2015 - 04:17 PM

Hello all,

 

I have a colony of Kadango and one of the females is holding, she may have been holding for a few days.

 

What do I do now?

 

I have read that the gestation period is about three weeks, when should I either move her or strip her?

 

 

I have not dealt with cichlid babies before.

 

 

1.Do I strip her into a new small tank and just try and raise the fry?

 

2. Leave her and hope for the best?

 

3. Do I put her into the fry tank and wait for her to spit out the babies?

 

 

Cheers
