    Hey all.

    this mornig i am so :bigsmile::bigsmile::bigsmile: to see that my Danio's are spwaning, but in a K@K place, i have one of those net guppy breeders in my tank, with a few plants in, now they go between the glass and the net, and drop the eggs off in that small place,

    can i move then breeder away, and catch the egss with a net? and place them in the breeder? will this work? as i see my book says, in 2 days they hatch, and in 5 days they are free swimming.

    any help plz? as i would like to have a few Fry.

    Many Thanks

    Vez

    Awesome
    Dude you are getting some nice breeding going there...

    As far as I understand they are egg
    Scatterers, the best way to breed them is to have like marbles at the base of the tank for the eggs to be safe... What to do with the fry I have no idea... Which danios have you breed

    Thanks dude

    well i see some say you need to place a grid at the bottom, thats why i want to place them in the breeder, and itw the normal Danio's (i think,) and the best part is, i only have three 1 male and two female, and both of the females are spawning!!!!

    okay, so i got most of the eggs, and placed them in the breeder, and hope they make it, i see they are still in and out of the "drop off site" so i will take a look later and see if they dropped off some more eggs.

    if i am lucky, and they do hatch, what do i feed them?

    The best will be rottifiers. A few people also use the vacation blocks, with good results.
