eggs

Noticed this morning the black stressed makings on my female steindachneri. When I looked closer I saw her mouth moving and swear I see little eggs inside. If so this will be a 1st time chiclid spawn for me, so I hope they will hatch into fry. I have a video and will try and upload it later..

Several times when I have stripped Peacocks and Haps after spawning (into a tumbler) I have found that many of the eggs turn a strange 50% clear - 50% light tan color after a few days. The best way to describe it is if you had a chicken egg with a transparent shell. The bottom half off the egg...

A large part of the fun of fish keeping is providing the animals under our care with foods which offer optimum health and nutritional benefits. At tannin Aquatics, we made it a point from day one to only offer our customers a selection of fish foods that we felt provided optimum quality, value...

This could easily be in the "New World" forum but technically it is for a pair of Jewels that I have in a tank with several small Ancistrus. On their first spawn the eggs were gone the next day. I'm virtually certain that this was a result of the plecos eating them at night since this is a...

One of my longfin super reds that I got in the spring from Angels Plus at 1 inch long has finally bred. I put one of the males in with two standard super red females and Saturday morning I found a cave full of eggs! Crossing my fingers that he's a good father. Here's a pic of the eggs.

So, I'm pretty excited about Doc's Eco Eggs and the reception thus far! A lot of you have not considered this product before, and the feedback we're getting is pretty cool! We really want to get a lot of hobbyists into the "habit" of using this great food, so I think it would be cool to...

So, as of this AM, I have another batch of Guianacara sp. eggs. These guys are prolific once they get going... It is a pretty big batch. Here's a terrible photo -

So my cory eggs were starting fungus so i took 5 healthy eggs and made a tumbler for them and it seems to be working quite well. Do you guys think something like this could work for apisto eggs since the parents just polished of this batch of eggs. Here are pics: Sent from my ASUS Transformer...

I went to check out my A. spilotus this morning and noticed what looks like eggs on the side of the tank. I will probably just leave the adults in there with them since the tank is inundated with java moss. I have to say, I was surprised - those are some BIG eggs for such a small fish -...

What fungus inhibitors do you use for artificially hatching eggs. I have been getting eggs from my Tilapia ruweti every Saturday like clockwork for six weeks. There are two females in this tank and they alternate breeding with the male. If I let the eggs in with them they will let them hatch...

We have a plagued 5 gallon tank. Story follows, but main question is the following: After stripping a combo of fry and eggs, all the fry have died. Don't know why (more on that below). We moved the eggs to the display tank where we knew the water would be safe (did not move any water to avoid...

There must be something in the water, LOL, because I noticed that the Apistogramma Macmasteri that are in my 20 high community tank laid about 20 eggs on the underside of an anubias leaf. This is their first spawning, and there are danios and killis in the tank, so we'll see whether the fry...

Woo-Hoo! I have no idea whether the other Discus is a male, but I know I have at least one female, because I caught her in the act of laying eggs a few minutes ago: So stupid newbie question: are the eggs fertile when laid, or does the male now have to fertilize them? This being their...

Well, several days ago I broke down the community tank that was housing my Julidochromis dickfeldi and Altolamprologus compressiceps (Gold Head). Put the Gold Heads in their own tank with a nice little cave and a couple of rocks. Today I noticed about a dozen unfertilized eggs sitting on top of...

Hopefully, new fry!
