Just out of eggs I suppose?
These are the first batch I think
Now to get the idea of the size of it, compared to a ball pen tip

Prabhu , Ishaan & radjanair thank you guys
Thanx Ruchit , Yeah looks like they are learning it fast :D
Saikumar, Thank you. I have a Boesemani Rainbow pair in that tank( keeping my fingers crossed as they too started mating dance, inspired by the otos I suppose )
I had a betta and single neon which I transferred them to another tank once I seen the frys |

dotfish,
They have been out of the eggs for more than a day. You need to start feeding them. Dont see their sac.
Make a solution from spirulina tabs and use a filler to target feed. If you can culture green water, it would be useful. Also try to get microworm culture.
Ideal thing would have been to transfer the eggs to a small tank. Feeding them is a big challenge.
All the best. |
