icecool2 July 10, 2012 July 10, 2012 (edited) The other day I noticed only one of my PJ cardinals was coming over to be fed. I found the other one under a rock ledge just hanging out, but his mouth looked rather full. I thought maybe they pulled a switch-a-roo on me and I didn't notice, but I looked closer and sure enough... he had a big ball of eggs in his mouth. I'm 100% not setup to handle raising fry, especially with the move this weekend.<br><br>It's good to know they are breeding though, I'm going to think about trying to raise a later brood.<br><br>EDIT: Wow, there were a lot of typos....<br> Edited July 10, 2012 by icecool2
Coral Hind July 10, 2012 July 10, 2012 Good luck with the move and hopefully they settle in fast and start breeding again.
icecool2 July 10, 2012 Author July 10, 2012 I was pretty surprised to say the least. I was pretty sure I'd seen them spawn once before, but it was so quick, I couldn't be certain. I have a 5g AIO that I made that I could put the babies in and raise them there. I need to figure out how to get a rotifer culture going now.
icecool2 July 11, 2012 Author July 11, 2012 No more eggs in his mouth as of last night. I don't see any fry, granted they have a large area to hide in. I'm not expecting any to survive at this point though.
