Breeding Argentea pair

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Godd luck, and very exciting!
 
Modest_man, what size are your argentea? I agree that even venting them are difficult because of the overall color of the fish.
 
Well, on tuesday mom and dad decided to let the fry have full reign off the 180 and unfortunately eliminated two other argenteas, I was able to save one and removed it and put it in a 125 away from the aggression. I guess that is expected when dealing with protective parents. As you can see in the my previous post the tank had plenty of hiding places and it still wasn't good enough. http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=174112

Well for their 1st spawn together they had sucessful spawn w/ very few loss of eggs to the dreaded fungus. Currently both Fish range are approx 6-7 inches (bought them at a little under 5 inches back on April) They are currently in a 180 gallon tank w/ few other tankmates (same species) but are limited to hide behind the strawberry pots and rear corners of the tank. The fry are almost a week old and are being fed BBS along with crushed flakes and the algae growing on the pots. Thanks to Paul at Central States and Don Conkel.

May I ask something? Where in the tank did they lay the eggs? In the PVC, pot or other? I have a pair around the same size and I think one of vents have started to drop on my female.

Thanks in advance!
 
Awesome pair!
