Aubrey Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 I was reading through a tropical fish breeding book I got at a thrift store. It is from 1993, and in the introduction it is covering all the different strategies and requirements for a lot of different fish. It mentions the difficulty of breeding and raising leaf fish, saying that blue gouramis fry are required for feeding. Is this a thing? Have any of you intentionally bred fish to use their fry as live food for other fry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADMWNDSR83 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 I don't intentionally do it, but I have not as of yet done much to protect my molly and swordtail fry from the parents or the angelfish. Some would probably like to tar and feather me, but I see it as nature. I have been working to give the fry a nice green hiding field so they can have some type of fighting chance. I've never heard of fish ONLY eating a specific breed of fry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
