BenB Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 My rams laid eggs last night. I pulled them and they are now in a little specimen container with some methylene blue and an air stone. They are hanging inside the aquarium so they stay the same temp as where they were laid. They usually eat the eggs so this is the first spawn I have pulled. I don’t know what I am doing. Thank you! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandy Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 So far I think so, they turn white and opaque when they die. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Folk Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Photo below from last major batch we raised the way you're starting out. It's so worth it . . . you need to make sure you've got some finely powdered fry starter food, and know how to hatch live baby brine shrimp. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one was 2nd generation in from a cross between a gold ram (female) and an electric blue ram (male). Below is the chart showing how the genetics broke down. I can explain more . . . the ram photo above was from the group in the lower right corner of the genetics tree.

BenB Posted April 16, 2021 Author Share Posted April 16, 2021 So now I have a whole lot of wrigglers when should I start feeding them? I made a paramecium culture to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
