fatpuffer Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 I've noticed that my ebjd and bgjd are dancing in the tank. I think it is a female bgjd but not 100%. BGJD seems to have more spangles. I cannot find my camera so I used the blackberry. Sorry for the poor quality of the pics.

Bluecan Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) ebjd = electric blue jack dempsey bgjd = blue gene jack dempsey --> A regular colored jack dempsey that carries the 'electric blue" gene, you need this type of female to produce electric blue babies as an electric blue JD X Electric blue JD will not produce Electric blue fry......only an electric blue to a carrier will give electric blue fry..........get it? lol Edited September 2, 2010 by Bluecan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatpuffer Posted September 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Thanks folks. EBJD x EBJD will produce fry but the mortality right now is 100 percent. Not sure what is causing the death of the fry. Js Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kronosdelsol Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) Are you leaving the fry in with the parents? If not, do you have enough flow (simulate the fanning from the parents)? Maybe dose some methylene blue.

fatpuffer Posted September 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 The EBJD X EBJD is never produce any viable fry. It is the nature of the mutation. Nothing to do with the care of the fry as many other "mass" breeder also experience the same mortality rate with the ebjd x ebjd. Js Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
