Since then the male has been very busy digging pits all over the tank but the female doesn't seem to be interested. Is this a normal part of the breeding ritual?

I'm currently an intern working on a project to write the protocols for stingray pup husbandry. The aquarium I work at recently opened a saltwater touch tank and it looks like some of our females may be pregnant. I'm looking for any information or tips that people may have. I know that we will have to remove the pups from the touch tank and put them into a holding tank. Some of my questions are what kind of holding tank have people used? Do they need substrate or should I wait until they are bigger? Should mom be removed from the touch tank before she gives birth? Should mom stay with pups after birth? How long after birth will they start eating? What should they be fed? Any information would be great!
Thanks

What do you think. Also the plant in the back right corner is annoying cause it " falls apart" how would I solve that problem?

Not the best pic but you can barely see the fry.

the fish: 2 blue/green chromes, 1 orange stripe prawn goby, 2 ocellaris clownfish, 2 red fire fish, 1 yellow tang, 1 flame angelfish, 2 bengii cardinal fish, 1 one spot foxface, and 1 checkered hawkfish.

also in 2 or 3 years i am thinking of getting a 30 gallon black seahorse tank. i know that these guys breed really quickly and the fry are benthic, but i don't want to have to have to feed the fry live nutrient enhanced bbs. i don't want to kill them either. could i just get a tank with only females, or would they fight? i know that the males will fight to the death in a male-only tank but will the females? thanks again! ]]> Breeding oc435 http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?543275-need-to-STOP-fish-from-breeding!

I've just bought a breeding pair of Jags from my LFS and need a little help. I put them in the tank yesterday morning. By evening they'd claimed 2/3 of my 125 as their own. This morning they started showing breeding behaviour and by this evening she started laying. All a little fast. Anyway, I look around online and I see the eggs are an orange/tan colour, however mine are coming out white. Is this normal? Can I expect them to change over the coming days or are they bad eggs?

Any views are welcome!:D ]]> Breeding eyebrowz http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?542550-Jaguar-Egg-Colour Romantic moonlight? http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?542535-Romantic-moonlight&goto=newpost Sat, 01 Jun 2013 16:29:36 GMT I have read that moonlight can stimulate breeding.
