Breeding Cherry Barbs - Day Twelve
Breeding Cherry Barbs December 16th, 2006
The Cherry Barbs have spawned! I’m not sure exactly when it occurred, I usually check the bottom of the tank and the Java Moss a few times a day to see if a spawning occurred and today I noticed a few tiny specs in the debris that has collected on the bottom of the tank. At this point I’ve only spotted about 10 tiny fry. As you can see in the photo above they basically look like eggs with tails. I haven’t been able to spot any fry in the Java Moss yet, hopefully more survived being eaten than the few that were lucky enough to fall through the screen. The adults have been moved to the 55 gallon tank.
