devil marc Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 I bought a breeding pair of peps and have noticed lately my male isn't letting my female in the log and this morning I noticed my female had layed out side of the tank ( unfertilized ) is there anything I can do to get my male to let my female in???

Sonofhud Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 Best of luck interferring in the relationship of another couple - I find my albino longfins getting a bit more hyped up with the odd few drops of blackwater extract. Seems to kick in breeding mentality - Worth a try. Google it and see - probably sold lcoally but The Tec Den sells it with disc to forum members via net.

Kaizen088 Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 How do you know they are unfertilised? I'd put the in a tumbler or sieve with an air stone underneath, I always put in a couple small cherry (apparently to bigger ones nippers can pinch the eggs) shrimp to help keep the eggs clean.
