green chromis

[johnl69]

MY pair of chromis are breeding again Yipee!:D hopefully this time the cleaner wrasse doesn't eat all the eggs:mad:.

was woundering if the alk would have triggered this? if my memory serves me correctly the last time i dosed "reef builder"(bout 2 month ago) they bred then and where laying eggs for about a week. coincidence?

Hi John it could have been the trigger for them to spawn,as most fish do when there is a change in the water make up. A friend of mine used to breed tetra's and he used to dump a load of cold wter in to trigger them. All the best with them and keep us updated as to how they go on. Eric:D

why dont you get a small tank and just remove the eggs into it, no need for skimmer just a small powerhead or even an air line, and a heater. T8 light would be fine also.

Then just do 25% water changes everyday. To compensate for all the uneaten food you'd be feeding the babies.
