BNs

[jmaster]

hi all

just wondering do male BNs fan the eggs all the time or do they somtimes leve the eggs and sit by the entrance??

also if the male thought it was safe as it is just him and 2females in the tank would he come out of the cave wen there are eggs in there??


thanx all

not exactly sure on BN's but my convicts sometimes moved away from fanning the eggs, mit wasn't for long though.

not too sure on your other Q i shoudl think it would make him feel more secure but moving them also causes risk to the brood, unless you can remove the other fish without making too much disturbance.

Our mr bristle didnt leave them while i watched him (till 3:00am some times).

Ours spawn in tubes though so its a bit different.
