NEW SPAWN

So my RTM's decided to spawn, again, today. Last spawn, I let them eat because I didn't have space. I think I'm gonna try my hand at raising fry this time. Any suggestions from all you successful breeders?

Congrats! Motaguense is one species I have tried to raise on multiple occasions with little success. Can't offer any advice, but good luck with the spawn.

Thanks Jon. The last spawn got to 1/8" inch before they ate them all. The pair are small and in a smaller tank, so I didn't expect the fry to survive. They were good parents though. I have a 10g I'm gonna setup to try and grow some out

Nice I've seen then go from good parents to bad when the fry are getting to the 1/2 inch range. But for the most part they are good parents.
Good idea with the 10 add an old sponge filter in there so they can pick at the filter when your not feeding or if you can't feed three times a day(small meals) Crushed flakes work just as well just stir it into the water so that chase the moving bits around.
