I have a pair of curviceps in a 2ft tank, they have had numerous spawnings but only once have had free swimming fry.
I took a friends advice and removed the eggs this time and put them into a small tub with methylene blue and an airline. I have been removing the infertile eggs and only a few dead fry each day, with more than a 100 still alive yesterdat. Today their yolk sacs have almost completely gone and I guess they will be free swimming in 1 or 2 days but most of them have died in one day
I have not done any water changes in the tub that they are in, is this the likely reason for the sudden deaths? Should I have been doing partial changes every day?
Thanks,
Dave
