anchar Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Out of interest, what food are you giving them? Are you sure it isn't pellets? Andrea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CThompson Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Yellow's eggs are not red. If they were unfertilsed they more than likely either would have been spat out well before three weeks, and in addition, probably would have fungused two weeks ago. Have no idea why they were red.

GTR73 Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 Are they actually organic? Maybe she's picked up some red gravel in an instinctive reaction to spawn for some bizarre reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
