 | Kribensis Breeding Q & Hopefully A |
Hooktor   Fish Addict Posts: 646 Kudos: 651 Votes: 67 Registered: 22-Mar-2004   | I have found a pair of breeding kribensis for $30 that i will put in my 20H. 1. Is this a good deal, or is it expensive? 2. What should i get as a breeding place? A special cave or can i just use a flowerpot? Does it need to be cut in half? Or can it be left whole? 3. Are kribensis hardy or sensitive fish? My pH is 7.6, is that ok? 4. What temperature should i keep the tank at? 5. I just set up the tank a few days ago and it has a few guppies in it; when is the soonest you would reccomend putting the kribebsis in? Would bio-spira aid in this process? |

I would get a few young ones & let them pair off, but if you want an established breeding pair, go for it. 2. Kribs need some caves, but whole or cut pots are Ok, aswell. 3. 7.6 would be fine, but it's better to see in what pH they are at the moment, so you can try not to make huge difference for them. 4. 25 deg. should be Ok. 5. It's better to have it completly cycled, before putting the Kribs in. 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 |
