Nandopsis Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Not to worry that is your fishes Genital Papilla *AKA private parts*, and by the looks of it you have a male. Check this link out. I know it is not exactly your same fish, but is will be the same. http://www.tropicalresources.net/phpBB2/fi...citrinellus.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nandopsis Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Sure they would probably try to breed. He's definately ready. If you do make sure you have a sturdy divider handy just incase the female isn't quite ready. :boxer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nandopsis Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Will water flow through your divider? Is it Egg Crate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spcy Posted September 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Will water flow through your divider? Is it Egg Crate? It is 1/2 " squares the water flows through great minnows could swim through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nandopsis Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Sounds like a Egg Crate divider to me. *Perfect* Try and keep them separated for awhile. They might even breed while separated. On her side set up some Rocks and even a peice of slate on the bottom of the tank over by the divider. If she feels comfortable there she will lay here eggs there, and the male will see that and come fertilize them. If not wait awhile untill she gets used to seeing him around. Good luck. :beer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
