水草情迷

Hi all,

My Ram couple 1st sucessful generation!

But.....Many of babies were lost at the time I back home in the next day (should be ate by the tetras!)

I tried to save the remain babies, so I catch the parents and babies to a breeding net. After just several minutes while I still catching the babies, many of them already in the net were missing ! Finally I conclude that they were ate by their parents........ If I have the next chance, I will catch the babies only lor.....

Very very nice!

I'm afraid that other fish will attack them!

Don't be afraid... they will get attacked. If you are lucky, you probably get one or two out of this session. I usually get one out of two successful breed in the community tank for fish with parental protection habit, for those without, never suceeded. Don't worry, that's already better than nature.

Good so nice
i can;t do like that in my grass tank

The problem is on breeding of baby fish in this environment!

唉......我早幾日都好似r.f.兄咁開心,難得地係水草缸孵倒魚仔,
不過唔夠三日就...............嗚嗚嗚....

hi, 如果真係想養到小魚，方法只有兩個，一是在他們產卵後拿走卵用人工孵化，二是捉走所有燈魚，否則如果缸大加上父母照顧又好的話都有少部份可以生存，細缸真係多多都唔夠死。另一個辦法是改用鉛筆魚混養短鯛，因為我試過，發現佢地真係幾純，加上口細所以連小魚都不會吃。等小魚出來後再撈的成功率太低了，亦有可以將他們嚇死。

Hi 史卡德,
is all type of 鉛筆魚 can 混養 with 短鯛?
thanks

HI Bruce, 我試過用三條金線鉛筆混養一對三線，成功孵出魚仔後都不見他們有偷襲的行動，而鉛筆的大小更較三線大些少。我估用咀更細的尖咀鉛筆(頭向上果隻)會更好。

thanks

Hope they will all grow to be adult.
