i have a ten gallon cycling, and a pair of paradice fishes in it. and WOW he has made a huge nest. but the problem is that the tank is needed to move and set-up by sun. should i let them breed in the tank or move them.

well, you can a) let them breed, or b) save the bubble nest (by taking a syringe, or turkey baister and setting it back into the new breeding tank

Or just schloooooop the nest into a cup and transport it. *shrugs*

In any case, he'll create a new bubble nest in time, so it's really up to you.

You can leave them to breed now or move them & they'll breed again later.

When I had these fish I realized that at least with mine that they would make a nest right after I moved them, probally the new water as well......but still..

I say let them breed in that tank. If they breed, you can always move them later on when they are finished.

Good luck.

The water change with moving the tank will probably encourage him to build another nest.
