Hi has anyone here had any experience with breeding t. Schoudenti? It looks like 1 have 1 small Male with 2 large females, that have apparently recently mated. After mating took place how long if successful, would it take to see fry? Do I need to do anything in regards to separating the parents? I h...

Thank you guys for the help, I appreciate it.

The more aquascaped looking tank I posted earlier was before I got these guys. I've since let it overgrow a lot more to help provide that.

This is what they looked like all day.

Yes it was. I didnt think they were mating, only because it was just biting it, and it didnt seem like it was doing anything else. This was from morning, and it was still holding on when the lights went out. Unfortunately, I did try to take them apart with a net not knowing what was going on. Even t...

It's a 68 gallon and i would consider it heavily planted. It's a nice tank. I tried posting pics, but it says it's too large, even when I resize them. My friend just told me now that he thinks their breeding. I hope hes right.

I have 3 t schoudenti in my tank, the smaller one has bit one of the larger ones and wont let go! They've been like like this for hours now.

I have 3 t schoudenti, that I've had for 6 months now. The smallest of the 3 has for some reason latched onto a bigger one. It looks like he bit the other one on the stomach and wont let go. I've tried to break them apart with a net but it's not helping. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks

And still wondering if I might have problems housing the 2 T schoutedeni in the 78? Appreciate the insight from you guys...

Thanks for the advice...The size of the t schoutedeni if I had to guess maybe 3inches. I got pics of them but i cant upload them here apparently. They are going into a Ada 120H so roughly 78 gallon I believe. I have a 125 and 135 as well but they are currently empty and was only planning on using th...

Ok thanks I'll keep them separate...and yes it is a light colored sand.

Hi I'm a new to puffer keeping, and they have instantly become my favorite fish they seem to have lots of personality... I have 5 SAPS, currently and temporarily housed in a 20 while their new home (a 68 gal) finishes cycling which should be done by next week. They seem kinda hyper compared to the o...
