BREEDING Rainbowfish - Over 500 Fry Yield! 

Agree. Full breeding process should be more fun to watch. But it's reasonable to cut off a little bit if the starting processes are similar.

Pain

Patience is the name of the game.

😂

@@bogreen4805 yeah for sure, truth be told if he puts them outdoors in a large tub it could be a few months. My Parva fry had big gains summer tubbing

Auto feeder prem dried food! And live food 8 times a week. ! I rather have 500 fish for 1 year then 30 fish for 3 months

That will be a playlist for relaxing for sure.

Preacox. Word correct kills me.

Is the mani part pronounced man-ee or man-eye?

@@jueadeo8843 as man-ee Boosuhmahnee the suh part is very short.

Probably something should be wrong in the tanks para or temp, just saying from my experience m8 :)

@@Exquatics nothing is jumping out of tanks

@@rythmjunky5292 ohh sorry XD, I misunderstood

@@Exquatics no worries! ✌

That is exactly what I came here to ask

I think yes, you could do that, but moving the mop too much could displace the eggs out of the mop and into the water. If you moved the mop and kept the fish in the tank, the fish would eat the eggs that were displaced during the moving of the mop. Moving the fish is the better option to ensure all the eggs are left untouched and are not vulnerable to the fish!

You make a good point, Sarah. But aren’t rainbowfish eggs sticky and will most likely be “glued” to the mops? If there was loose eggs that weren’t on the spawning mop, I’m sure it would be an insignificant amount compare to the ones on the mop itself. Especially since he has multiple colonies going at the same time. Is the time it takes to catch and move the fish worth more than the few eggs that you may lose if you were to leave the fish in the same tank and to just retrieve the mops into a new tank? You could even hatch out multiple mops of the same species in the same tank to save space. I’m sure this catch and move method will work better for other species like corydoras where they will spawn literally everywhere around the tank and will take longer to collect the eggs than to catch the fish out. With that said, both methods will work just fine. We’re all here to learn and to discover different methods of breeding these beautiful fish.

I've had the same issues, where are you buying yours from?
