si i have 5 geos total in my 40g breeder tank as a growout tank..well anyways i think one of my geos is mouth brooding..only reason y i think that is bcuz shes not eating keeping her mouth to almost close and moving her gills rapidly..any advice? i can take a video and post it if thats easier..thx in advance..
 
What species of geo? If they are Red Hump (steindachneri) I would bet you're right - they are mouth-brooders and breed like rabbits.
 
not sure of the species..the lfs i know labeled them wrong..but heres a video of the geo i am talking about..

What up with the gldfish and the other "feeder" type fish?????LOL........She might be carrying in her mouth........I f you have a spare tank in your room, place the fish inside of it for a proper growout/hatchery............The goldfish will dive upon the fry like mosquito larvae..........
