Challenging order from the Wetspot
- Thread starter tlindsey
- Start date
Infusoria and live bbs once large enough. The issue is that the eggs are released from pouch prematurely. Second time this has happened.
Is this a young parenting issue or are other factors causing the male to essentially abort mission?
It's possible.
It seemed like this time the pouch was ok until 5 fry embryo disappeared.
Can these ever be weaned onto fine prepared foods like Golden Pearls or decapsulated brine shrimp eggs?
Or would it be possible to house them with a ton of cherry shrimp and let them pick off the shrimplets as needed?
Curious to try these one day

Only interested in the live bbs.I'm really thinking about adding some type of shrimp.
I thought Convict Cichlids were bad Little buddy loaded with eggs again.
