Recently I bought a pair from A.macmasteri, and mantain it in 70 liters aquarium at 27 grades centigardes Celsius,well planted with Taiwan fern,Java moss,and Xmas fern.
I put inside some pots with holes,etc...after saw the female in nuptial colours
the same dissapear and I saw only the male:eek:
I don't know if the apple snails it's a dangereous for it...but the tank it's absolutly secure to avoid jump the fish.
Anyway I can try to breeding it for that I have some questions:
It's better breeding the A.macmasteri in trios?
It's a risk mantain inside de apple snail?
Maybe need another tank,less big to better control?
Thanks in advance:)
And the last one,any suggestions to breeding A.baenschi (temp.water quality (maybe black water),etc.
I gave as a food to my macmasteri male,TetraBloodworms,Tetracolours,Grindal worms,and White worms:biggrin:

Morning,

How long has your female been gone for ? Are you sure she is not hidding in the on of the pots brooding ? Mabe she got stuck as we. I would remove all pots and have a look.
Normally apple snails are not killers. cheers jk :biggrin:
