heff Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 It would appear that my female CPDs are carrying eggs as they're suddenly all bloated up. I've got a culture of banana worms which are fed fairly regularily as everyone seems to enjoy them. Are these too large for fry to eat? Do I need to get my hands on some infusoria? If any fry show up, I'd like to have food available for them. Thanks! Hugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJay Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 When I bred these fish, I did have to use infusoria before they took microworms. It was pretty low tech in terms of what I added though (green water from the windowsill seeded with a drop or two of water from my pond) and I supplemented with Liquifry. They moved onto microworms in a really short time too. Good luck with these! I found they were pretty easy to raise in a densely planted tank (after I removed the parents).

DanGofCalgary Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 I used 5-50 mic Golden pearls that I got from Harold. Seemed to work well as I have quite a few fry on bbs now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
