Im not really interested in raising ghost knife fry, they have very little value. Definitly not a fish i would want a bunch of fry from. Im just happy to be able to have two in the same tank and watching them interact.If I had a pair that ever really showed signs of courting, I'd move all the egg predators somewhere else. you'd really have something special there!
It wouldn't be for money, for the achievement. I only know of one or two captive spawning by hobbyists (not in asia with hormone-inducements) and it is quite fascinating. the one I know for sure of, I believe the owner killed fry by interfering and trying to save a couple.Im defnity not mo

After years of breeding fish i have come to realize there is no real achievement in breeding fish you dont want or fish that wont really sell, because when you end up with tanks full of fry that you dont want and cant sell the achievement feels like failure. Thats the main reason i dont keep cichlids anymore. The store that i sell most my stuff to would only buy a couple because they usually house them in seperate tanks, not a lot of folks looking to buy them and every store in my area sells them pretty cheap even petsmart. Could use them for food but by the time you raise them to a size to be feeders you could have bought food. So for now im cool with my adonis (who is one of my all time favorite fish) eating the eggs.It wouldn't be for money, for the achievement.

but I understand your point.
