I have had 3 bumblebees for a while now, and im wanting to breed them. They r in a 5 gal. with a Celestial pearl danio and a whole lot of snails. Is there anything i can do to help them breed? Thanks in advance!
 
well i wonder if the snails have anything to do with them not breeding, in such a small tank I would guess even if they are breeding you may never know cuz the snails could be eating their eggs.... Im not sure something to think about maybe????
 
that was something i was thinking about..... i might think about getting something to kill the snails

im probably wrong but arent these brackish?

Correct! They hang out in river tributaries in the wild.

If you can replicate those conditions in a 5 gallon great!
 
didnt even think of that... good call
 
They will likely not breed unless they have brackish...also, they are cave spawners, give them some small caves to hang out in (I actually used leftover shells from my multi and brevis colonies for them years ago...worked well)
