Zeaqua Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Hi all! So just a few hours ago, I noticed that my Bolivian Rams had spawned in my 40 breeder community tank, and I'm wondering if they'll be ok with their parents. My main worries are the catfish I have with them. I have 1 bristlenose in this tank, as well as 5 bronze cories. My main worry is that the eggs might get eaten at night, when their parents aren't as attentive. Any input would be appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Bristlenose won't eat fry they will eat eggs I think Cory's could predate small fry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beastie Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 My 4 bolivian rams breed every few days/week in the community tank, that houses corydoras, rummynose tetras and embers. They breed, eggs hatch, wigglers wiggle, wigglers hatch, free swimming fry lasts about two to three days as by then, the pair breaks up or something happens overnight and they are gone. If I target feed them bbs, rummynose will swoop in and pair is too busy eating to guard and they have heavy losses. If I dont feed, they starve. Is a vicious cycle, but reply is, no, they wont survive in the community tank with tetras and corydoras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
