      It took them a while to get used to the tank. But in the last few weeks I have been finding a lot of eggs on glass and in the moss. I think I have around 40 fry (1 week old) and around 50 eggs in various containers. Now I just need to get them to sellable sizes.

      They were super easy to breed; as long as you meet few conditions they need. I wish the gold lasers were the same...

    This is so much fun! Thank you for taking us along as you set up these tanks! It’s nice to hear you talking and I appreciate the explanations. Have you had any luck with the lasers? And how are those beautiful beautiful beautiful guppies doing? And what about Mr. bulldog? Could we have baby bulldogs? Puppies?

      I had no luck with Gold lasers yet but I have a lot of small Pygmy fry; 40 fry and 50 eggs waiting to be hatched. Mr. Bulldog is fine and he got new buddies in his aquarium; I will release that video soon. Cheers Jen

    Nice and easy setups. What are the dimensions of the aquariums? I was thinking 60x20x20, but then the 27 litres doesn't add up.
    I will be transferring my surviving Ember Tetras, Pygmy Corys, Otocinclus and Guppys to their new home (UNS 45U) this week. I'll clean out the Dennerle 55l and redo it at some point.

    • @IMaqua
      @IMaqua  Před 9 měsíci +2

      Aquariums are custom made to fit my window sill. If I remember correctly the dimensions are 60x18x25.

      Ja sam dobio jaja bez problema. Evo imam nekih 40ak malih 10-15 dana starosti i jos nekih 40ak jaja koja sam skupio u zadnjih par dana. Samo ih trebas dosta hranit zivom artemijom i kad je zenka kao balon ide jedan "water change" sa hladnijom vodom i to je to. Eto ti ideje za novi video "breeding pygmy corydoras"...

    Thanks for the interesting video. Question: Isn't it dangerous to put a Ramshorn snail in a breeding tank because it might eat the brood? Do you have any experience with this?

    • @IMaqua
      @IMaqua  Před 9 měsíci +1

      I never experienced that. Snails will eat only the eggs that go bad; so infertile eggs and eggs that catch fungus. Many breeders with years of experience use snails and shrimps to keep their eggs free of fungus. All my fluval hang on boxes that have unhatched eggs are full of snails.
