Post by dclaassen »

I would like everyones input on how to condition my Petricola to spawn. Do the black worms work, water changes with different temps, let me know what has worked for you.

I have 6 set up in a 38 w/marbles and flowerpots for spawning. I recently found some infertile eggs in the bowls, I presume the fertile ones hatched and were eaten. I feed Spirulina flake once daily, and usually Omega One African Cichlid flake once daily also, occaisonally frozen bloodworms or brine shrimp.

Lots of food , clean water, must be old enough. And in my case, a two day power outage in my house helped the cause. Maybe a coincidence, but since then they lay eggs every day.
