Beanbagsx Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Hi, Just want to know if the peppermint fry will be harmed by the other adults in the tank? I know I can put them in a fry saver but with B/N I had better success when I left them in the tanks. My first spawn of Peppermints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeWs Fish Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 The only time they could be harmed is if they hatch outside the males cave and still have their egg yolk attached. At this stage they could be eaten by other peppermints. Once they fully develop, they won't be eaten by other peppermints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dobbin4 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Agree with Mike. Have a good male and no probs Have a slack male that kicks them out then you can loose a lot. Need to keep an eye on them , not easy for us all,?? I sometimes take the shell or cave to a frysaver in the same tank, With the male as well. needs to be a good size. I put an airstone below, makes sure plenty co2. I have a divider that I clip the frysaver to, use the common cloths peg if i have to. If its the ice cream container type. Need to make a few more of Matts ones, they are very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
