Are the Peacock bass eggs sticky ?

:)

Thank you
 
In my experience and reading through others experiences.. at least with Monoculus it takes a few tries for some to get it right ;) Answer is They are suppose to be adhesive ;)

Though This is not always the case ;) it took mine 12 spawns to get the eggs sticking to the spot consistently ;) the first couple spawns were completely slippery :D And stuck to NOTHING!! :D

There are still some that don't .. but those are mainly the female missing the spawning rock completely :D And I have foudn that now even most of those get fertilised some how.... Water flow :)
 
Thank you for double answer...:)

Would a soup plate do the job instead of a flat rock?

As soon they are fertilized do you move them to an incubator ?

Would a salmon egg incubator (horizontal) would be better than a tubular zug style incubator (vertical)?

Is metal sheets, iron, steel , aluminium noxious to fish eggs?
