Hi, I am new to this forum.
I have a 28 gal freshwater tank with 4 Angels, 2 Blue Rams, 3 cory's and 1 plec.
My Rams were introduced last weekend and all was well. This friday past, I noticed that the Rams had coloured up and the female's ovipositor was showing. They proceeded to clear an area of the tank and later that night spawned on the gravel. They were keeping all other fish away from the area but not causing any damage to the other fish. Next morning most of the eggs had disappeared but I decided to save some that were still on a stone. I scooped them up and put them in a floating trap in the hope that I could save some of them. I have read that the fry are very tiny and when I looked in this morning I thought I could possibly see what is termed "wrigglers". What do you recommend I use for a first feed for these ? Also I was wondering if I should move the pair of Rams into a spare tank that I have. Would an 18" long tank be large enough for a pair ? or should I get a larger one for them ?
