Hi Brinegar, I think the presence of the angels and the rainbow shark could somewhat disrupt the breeding behavior of the black neons. But that's okay. I managed to get some black neon eggs even when other fish species are in the same tank. The most important thing is to put the moss in a cup, so it would be easy for you to collect the eggs. Also, you need to place the moss cup in a more sheltered spot where the fish consider it a safe area for them to lay eggs. If you don't have moss, a spawning mop should also work. I wish you good luck!
Dear Bo: This process, of breeding egg-scatterers differs from what you have done. I realize that you breed egg-scatterers, in bare-bottom tanks, with cups of moss. Alternately, you employ a breeding-trap, which allows eggs to fall, where the adults cannot reach them. Here, I am allowing neon-tetra, to scatter their eggs, where they will fall, between the gravel. In the same way, as with a breeding-trap, adults will be unable to reach the eggs. I hope to complete gravel-vacuums, of the gravel substrate, frequently. Eventually, such gravel-vacuums, should collect viable eggs, as Hyphessobrycon species breed, quite often. I don’t care, to have cups, in my tanks. I’m trying to make my set-ups look as natural as possible. I understand that your, main focus is breeding fish. I’m impressed, with what you are doing, as your stock are healthy and happy. My, main focus is the look of the aquaria I keep. Breeding is a secondary consideration, for me. Thank you, for your, continued interest and assistance. All my best, Sincerely, Brinegar
Dear Gabriel: Ha, ha: I tend to go on, so I cut out all the unnecessary pauses. Now, the mated pair, of angelfish, have replaced these, two angelfish. One of them has a fat belly, so it’s obviously a female, full of eggs. Perhaps it will pair, with a male, in the 75-gallon tank, now that there are 17, black and blue angelfish, there. Thank you, for your, continued assistance. Sincerely, Brinegar
