Breeding tank?

Posted on June 29, 2011 by admin| 3 Comments

I have a breeding pair of Freshwater Angelfish in a 12 gallon eclips. They layed eggs about 4 days ago and now the little eggs have little tails and some have eyes. I want to put them in a 10 gallon breeding tank. what would i need to set them up. i also heard that you are supposed to feed the babies some little shrimp larva but i dont know where to get them.

Also is there anything that i can do to get the babies a really bright color. i heard of raising them under continuse light but the tank would be in my room so i dont think i could do that

any tips or answers would be great.

Coincidence or not?

Posted on January 12, 2011 by admin| 6 Comments

My platy’s belly was getting quite big. I went to the petstore and asked what should i do. I only fed it flake food so the person told me to feed it freeze-dried brine shrimp. So i did. They next day hundreds of baby fish where at the bottom of my tank. Is this a coincidence or do brine shrimp make fish have babies?

Do you know where to get that little box that pet stores have for fish? My ghost shrimp is having some babies and I need something to separate her from the bowl. Here’s a picture of what I need:

Aquairum Lighting Question?

Posted on July 26, 2010 by admin| 4 Comments

Hey I have a 10 gal that I’m raising feeder guppies, snails, and cherry shrimp in. I have live hornwart (freshwater plant) growing really good and have plenty of hiding areas in it for babies to hide in. I have some algae but not enough that my shrimp and snails can’t keep under control. If I leave my lights on 24/7 will the guppies, snails, and shrimp grow faster? or will it actually hurt them? Also has anyone heard of “Snail milk”? Its a product I’ve seen on ebay and wonder if it really works or if it is just a scam. Please give me your advice and opinions. Thanks
