These Tetras are SO EASY to Breed

G'Day Legends,
Today I wanted to do an Ember Tetra Care and Breeding Guide.
Ember Tetras are a fish that I have kept for a good while now but haven't had the chance to talk about.
I definitely recommend picking up a group of them, heaps of fun.

Underrated fish ... but not by aquascapers, who appreciate the pops of orange against the green!

[@BlakesAquatics]

Definitely well represented there

[@Wintersdark]

I absolutely love mine. I make no effort to breed them at all, but there's always seemingly another little one kicking around.
I keep mine at 24c and 7.6ph, and even though there's a bunch of Emerald Danios, pygmy cories, a pleco, several types of shrimp, micro crabs, and more. Even with all that and "non-ideal" ph, they're thriving.

[@madhatterjones4781]

Any tips for breeding them. I have a quite geavily planted tank

[@Wintersdark]

@@madhatterjones4781 either live food or good frozen food, daphnia and baby brine shrimp are excellent. Lots of moss (they're egg scatterers) as it provides safe spaces for the fry to grow without being immediately eaten. Stable water parameters. If everything else is good and you've been feeding them live/frozen food, a big water change can help trigger it too.
I have a literal wall of flame moss that fills about a sixth of my 29g tank, and any time you look carefully within it you can find fry swimming about.

Another great you tube video keep up the good work Blake

[@BlakesAquatics]

Thanks! Will do!

[@Gilsfishroom]

I have mine under a full spectrum light. The colour is amazing!

[@BlakesAquatics]

Very nice!

[@brandonhk1lljoys]

🔥 Used to love keeping those little guys, the camera doesn't do their orange justice - super vibrant, beautiful fish👌
Thank you thank you ✌️♥️
Congrats on hitting 35k as well🥳 40k just round the corner🚀

[@T.J-and-Soul]

I've got about 12 Ember tetras in a tank with some Cardinals and Rumy nose. The Embers are a beautiful little fish. Like you said, very gentle and active.

[@Tom-zi9xw]

Nice man. And yeah...your LFS will pretty much buy every single one you have too. At least here in the US, people love them.

[@BlakesAquatics]

True that!

[@FishFaceTV]

Really enjoying your channel. Finding it very informative and helpful. Thank you for making these.

[@BlakesAquatics]

thank you

[@TalisaAquarist]

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

[@ArnoldQMudskipper]

Kinda agree with the guy that got deleted 😅 It was a nice vid, in general though. Can't go wrong with Embers 🧡

[@BlakesAquatics]

What guy got deleted?

[@markfranklin8831]

Great information video. Congratulations on 35K

[@BlakesAquatics]

Thank you!

[@aqualicioushobby]

Definitely a good one for a future project. Thanks for sharing the info. Love the thumbnail 😉

[@BlakesAquatics]

I thought you would 😅 was waiting to see if you picked up on it

[@aqualicioushobby]

@@BlakesAquatics took a while but I did at the end 😂 love it!!!

[@bigfishlad4847]

Top video Blake

[@BlakesAquatics]

Thanks 👍

[@matman429]

I got me some CPD going to try and breed them hopefully.Great video.

[@BlakesAquatics]

Good luck!

[@matman429]

@@BlakesAquatics Thanks mate I'll need it 😂

[@dellseasandoval8187]

Beauty.

[@madhatterjones4781]

Love my embers they are on fire under chihiros light. Takes time for them to colour up. But once they do wow!!

[@its_elser]

i recently found 2 fry in my Kubotai Rasbora grow out tank. I sold 20 of them to someone and he gave me some mosses and he had ember tetras in his tank.. I think the fry came from there as my Kubotai "fry" were under 3 months old(large though). I put the 2 fry in with a new lot of Kubotai fry so i hope they are embers. I will see in a month or so i guess.

[@BlakesAquatics]

Green and orange, very nice combo

[@its_elser]

@@BlakesAquatics yeah i like the red and green. actually got some chilli rasbora now(havent seen them in Aus for years.. sold all the Kubotai grow outs but have lots of fry going in buckets. Once the grow i will keep a small scholl for the chilli tank

[@bigeizsupportgroup1427]

Gday Blake's

[@BlakesAquatics]

Gday

[@GuppyDundee]

Do they make any that can hang on the back wall . Like a live feature wall ? . Pending on price I thing there is a market

[@hydrocooledcarrot]

Im glad im not the only one who seems to collect ANKO tanks haha. They certainly arent great but for $35, yes please 😂

[@BlakesAquatics]

haha yep, they used to be 20 bucks, much more of a bargain then.

[@MrRussianGerman]

Just came across at least three fry that managed to survive. It’s a 20 gallon that is heavily planted and only a group of five ember tetras and three black neons. There are some amano shrimp and a couple otto cats.
Do you recommend separating the fry from the main tank?

[@fcb869]

Love them and just got surprise spawn

[@BlakesAquatics]

well done!

[@markvonwisco7369]

I ended up with a handful of Ember tetra fry surviving without even trying to breed them.

[@BlakesAquatics]

perfect!
