Tryied Artifical Hatching method(UPDATE #3)
:biggrin: Hi All. Well since my borelliis didn't give me time to change out. their tank to no UGF sand substrait and RO water. Because they decided to spawn again.LOL I decided to remove the eggs pot and all to a 1qt jar with ozarka distilled water and airation it's sitting in the main tank. So far it is working I currently have 100+ fry in wiggeler stage and they all seem to be doing good. What realy stumps me is my water has such a high alkalinity but My A. borelliis and now A. cacatuoides are breeding so readaly. I have 15 gal RO water I purchased this weekend was going to use it for my Cacatuoides tank but when I got home last nite one of my females is guarding now.
Sincerely Curtis
PS: Will the female resume care of the fry if returned to her? I was wondering because it looks like maybe she or the other is guarding some eggs thought that when other spawn reaches freeswimming stage I might could reintroduce the prior batch and she might take care of them also.
