	Harlequin Rasboras
Hello Fishy Banned Posts: 32 Kudos: 27 Votes: 5 Registered: 13-Jul-2005	I have 3 (i know, not enough, but im getting more)harlequin rasboras, and I just wondered what might encourage them to breed. I've read in books that they are difficult to breed, but its worth a try. Also, while on the subject of rasboras, is it ok for me to feed them fruit flies? When I got them a couple of days ago, i read that they were insectivores, and fed them a few. I just wanted to make sure that it would be safe to continue feeding them the fruit flies. -sabrina

I don't know about fruit flies, if they're safe or not, but if you are sure that they are clean, you can use them. http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/s8xi5heh/my_photos http://www.geocities.com/s8xi5heh/classic_blue.html http://groups.yahoo.com/group/buzaqq/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com
