Spawning Cones

[Kwazy]

Hi,
Just wondering, can plain old terra cotta flower pots be used as something for fish to lay eggs on? Does anyone know if they effect the water chemistry?

Thanks!

I use them for breeding my Angelfish and they seem to work well!

Sweet! Speaking of breeding angelfish...
Do you think a 20 gallon high would be big enough to breed my little pair? Theyre about 3.5" long counting tail and 4" high counting fins.

They will be fine. I bred all my smaller angel pairs in 20g highs and my large pairs in 29gs. The more taller and narrow the pot the better. When I bred angelfish I used spawning slates. I found they take up less space and its easier to pull and artificially hatch the eggs in case the parents start eating the eggs. I used similar slates in the picture I found on google. I bought a pack of 10 at a local fish swap for a few dollars.

If you have any questions about spawning or rearing fry feel free to pm and ask me any questions.
