They are giving it a try
My Leopard and Eruption are finally after a week in solitary. They have been spawning regularly in my display but the TDS is not ideal so i moved them on their own. RO slightly added KH to a TDS of 70.
I am not going to get my hopes up.

Thanks Liz. Do you think I should shoot some MB with a syringe at the eggs? or they should be oK with daily water change?

Nice Chuck and crossing body parts for you. Is this a first for you?

Your discus are talking to you....are you listening
Re: They are giving it a try
For discus yes and no, I been breeding Pitch Black Rams for a wile and ABN's. When I got the 4 discus (eruption pair, panda and a leopard) the two eruptions spawned in the QT tank and only a couple of free swimmer survived for a few days until they eat them. So they went in the large display and they changed pairs the eruption started spawning with the leopard and the Panda with the other eruption. The two pairs have been continuously spawning but my display has a TDS 240 plus and none survive anyway. Finely after vacation last month I decided to give this pair a try on their own with RO with some buffer to stabilize the KH and a TDS of 70 or less. This is their first try on their own so not getting my hopes up but as long as the are spawning we will keep on trying.

Re: They are giving it a try
Looks like they were both making the right moves! Fingers-crossed for a good spawn and I'm looking forward to seeing the results!
Re: They are giving it a try
With beautiful fish like those I would be definitely getting my hopes up for sure!!! Good luck and keep us posted.
Re: They are giving it a try
The eggs still look fairly clear after about 20 hrs.

Re: They are giving it a try
Looks like a great fertilized batch of eggs
Re: They are giving it a try
That's what it looks like to me, too. What a pretty bath of eggs.

Re: They are giving it a try
Rats. Time for a second try. How about pulling the cone next time and putting the eggs in a pitcher of RO? That's what I have to do with my water.

Re: They are giving it a try
Thats mostly all RO with some alkaline buffer 50 TDS.
