Hi guys i was looking in my geophagus tank and i saw eggs, and my two geophagus brasiliensis guarding them, most were yellow some were clear. Also why are there loads of new members? I've only been gone for 6 days and there are loads more, this is definately a good thing. |

Bruce,
Have you done anything special to get them to breed.. I've tried just about everything with mine but they just won't do the deed. They follow each other around all day but never get up to anything. |

I've set it up with fine gravel bogwood slate and plant pots, and they share it with
2x sajicas
2x red hump eartheaters
1x juripari
2x agrostrickat
2x bronze cory's
so really nothing speacial although they do get frozen blood worm and other frozen very regularly. |

bruce i have brasiliensis two pairs and they would not lay until i put them in a tank on their own if the did lay they ate their young becauseof the threat of the other fish. crushed flake is what i fed them after 3days and once they were old enough brine shrimp
gd luck |
