[font color="#000080"]Hello!
I've got a pair of kribensis now and I really believe that I can breed them.
The pair are doing great together in my 15G planted tank, courting behaviour can be seen from time to time.
But currently, I'm feeding them with only algae flakes.
I want to improve the diet, so I will buy some other food for them next week.

Please give me some ideas what type of food shall I condition them with?

I was thinking about buying some frozen food.
So I can feed the flakes in the morning and the frozen food in the evening.

What do you think?

Thanks,
Jimmy

wow its been awhile since ive been here.

I think frozen foods would do fine. Also try live food and see if they can catch it?
Also try increasing your temperature to about 80-82

Good luck.

Mainly brine shrimp and tubifex. Freshly hatched BBS is best for conditioning.

Frozen food is good, but try to stick with brine shrimp and worms still. Dont use mysis shrimp, it stinks up the place and fish hardly like it.
