Re: German Santarem Spawn
That's great Larry.
Fingers crossed for you .
Re: German Santarem Spawn
Hi Larry, you may let them get to wiggler stage prior to moving them to a breeding tank. Defending the cone/fry helps to cement the pair bond.

Good idea Pat, will do that, will still get their breeding tank setup and ready to go, have a seeded sponge in the tank for the breeding tank so can get the tank aerating and ready to go.
Re: German Santarem Spawn
Thank you Danny appreciate it, will let you know how it goes.
Re: German Santarem Spawn
Thanks Tom, they turned into some nice discus.
Re: German Santarem Spawn
Great Larry. I hope they will raise the fry. Looks like a excellent pair.

Thank you Bud, these probably will not survive as they are still in community tank with 7 other discus, but if all goes well they will have wigglers and I can move them into their own tank.

Yes I am excited to see how this goes, always nice to get fish from another hobbiest and grow them out and have them breed for you. Has been an interesting journey for sure.

You will do well Larry. It is a lot more fun for me if they will raise the fry. At least you have breeding activity. My santarem are showing no signs of breeding yet. Keep us informed on your journey. Exciting.
Re: German Santarem Spawn
Check them this morning and we have WIGGLERS! Little less than half the eggs actually made it, but that tells me we have a pair and they both are defending them.
