How can I breed Tetractenos hamiltoni?

Post by UncleFugu »

Do I need any specific water parameters (at the moment they are in a brackish tank) or tank size to breed T. hamiltoni. Is there also a gender ratio needed? I notice that AJ, one of my three, has been making amorous advances to Puffpuff, another one of my puffs. Should I remove Gizmo, the third party? He is a juvenile so I don't think he will have any effect on the pair but I don't know.

Cheers,

Oh yeah, I forgot - Puffpuff is not exactly swollen with eggs.

Don't believe it's ever been done, might take some change in salinity, or other change we don't know about, to trigger them.
No matter how magnificent your successes or devastating your failures, the worlds' approximately 5 billion impoverished people could not possibly care less.
