yesterday morning i turned the tank lights on and my giant danios were going nuts. they were chasing eachother all over my 125usg and i thought they were killing eachother, until i seen the eggs falling every where. it was wild, i did not know anything could move that fast, they looked like they were rolling it to the shape of a ball together. just thought i'd share.

What do you do next?
will u activly attempt to make conditions that are condusive for survival.

My first experience with the birth process was totally unexpected when my swordtail started to drop babies, it became quite a fiasco at my house with my wife trying to protect every single one from getting eaten by the mollys or even start digging into the filter to rescue suckups.

i will be making no attempt to save them. alot of them were eaten by the oscar, green terror, and the geophagus. if any do hatch, they will be sure to take care of the fry.

Sounds like the Danio was just putting on a little pre breakfast snack for all of those other fish. I personaly dont like your chances of any growing to any size at all.

Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info

still have some fry swimming atound int the tank, I am very surprised about this because none of the fish are chasing them, mabey some will survive.
