Badassmc Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 Hey guys just wondering about materials etc to successfully breed some peppermint BN's. So hypothetical situation lets say I have a sexually mature pair that are breeders which I've bought from someone else. What do I need ie number of tanks, size of tanks, substrate, ornaments, any relevant materials for raising fry etc to run a successful fry making machine. I know there are some experts out there and I would appreciate all your input as I am completely new to this and looking at giving it a proper go. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badassmc Posted October 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 That was supper helpful answered a lot of my questions! Haha ok so only thing I need to know now is would 2 tanks (one for the pair, one for the fry) be a sustainable approach or would I eventually need more tanks?

savage_roo Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 Just keep it simple 1 tank don't clean the thing every week . A few bits of wood . and you don't need all that over the top food's ither And leave the fry in that tank till their over 3cms If you over think it or do it It just does not work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
