Breeding Red Head Tapajos

[samuelgoh]

Hi all,

My pair of RHT had breed for 4 times till date and so far the failure rate had been a 100%...

Can I check with you what I need to look out for to ensure surviving babies?

Thanks in advance!

PS: The 3ft tanks only has 3 RHT and 4 small Swordtails.

How far have the fries gone? Still wrigglers or free swimming already?

Egg form and gone or already wrigglers?
Remove all fishes and Just keep the pair in the tank

Gone in egg for even before they wriggle.
So remove the sword tails too?

Most likely parents ate them. Too much disturbance to the tank? I dont think the swords made much of a difference.

I am not sure. Just wondering how much disturbance 1 rht and a few sword tails can be

Imagine 6 person at a basketball court on a hot sunny day and only 2 of them have ice cold 100 plus with them

Hope u manage to breed them again and post the success here

IMO not much disturbance from them but I think as long as there are fishes in a breeding tank, most parents will be on their guard 24hrs whereas if there are none, I believe they will be less on guard and more relaxed. Sorry no experience in breeding RHT, but I'm assuming most parents should feel that way.

might be the lone RHT disturb...
or you keep checking on them?
