Noddy65 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Hi everyone, Would like to know the secrets on breeding peppermints cant seem to get mine started. I have a male 12-13 cms and two females 9-11 cms. any replies would be appreciated. Thanks, Guy Hi guy I keep mine in soft acidic water with a fair bit of wood for them to chew on. I feed a variety of food (veges and Sera flora) and supplement that with frozen blood worms, shrimp pellets and various NLS pellets (I feed these a few times a week). They spawn in a small hollow log or in a couple of bamboo logs (never had them spawn in a terracotta cave). I do a 10% water change weekly or fortnightly on a 6 x 2 x 2 tank. The tank is VERY lightly stocked, only three peppermints and about 20 rainbows in there. Hope that helps Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
