Redtail Notho Killifish

I had a sad accident. When doing a water change last week I removed the breeding container. When I put it back in the tank I must have trapped one of the females underneath. For days I thought I has inadvertently sucked her into the siphon but then I found her under the glass container. I’ve never had anything like this happen before. ☹️ 

I think I’m going to look for a few more females locally and divide the tank into two separate breeding areas.

That's tough.  Very sorry for your loss.

It’s tricky when fish dart under things we add in. I’m coming upon a few killi hatching months here. Hoping to make more!

Do you save up the eggs and hatch them in big batches?
