We have twice now had our pair of kribs lay eggs in our tank. We have
lost them both times. I'm wondering if anyone knows how to keep the
offspring from being devoured by the other fish or the parents wichever
it is that is eating them? We thought the sucker fish got them the
first time, but the second time we moved the eggs to anouther tank but
when we put the parents in as well the eggs dissapeared in seconds. Can
we remove the eggs to anouther tank without the parents? Will they
really survive if we just leave them in the big tank? We have them in a
70 gal. tank with several other fish...angels, 2 sucker fishes, a
gourami, an eel, tetras, and some rainbow fish, and an elephant fish.
Someone please help!
======================
For the best chance of fry survival remove the parents to a tank of their
own. Allow them to breed in peace.
