Kribs and NOT breeding them

[fishluvr <'><]

Hello,


I have a pair of kribs, and I was wondering if anyone has kept them successfully without them breeding?

Or is that not possible?

Any suggestions would be great!

Nope, the only way that you can force them not to breed is to separate them.

Well unles the paire are both male or bothe female.

otherwise impossible!!

some females can be a bit fussy to be honest and not always pair up with certain males. they usually prefer the male to be much bigger than themselves. its usually only a matter of time though.

Sometimes one or the other will be infertile....then they won't breed. But otherwise....nope.

Best bet would be to just get two males, more colorful, hold their territory which is kewl to watch, and don't breed! True females can be very picky and only breed with the male if she knew she was gonna die later...so yeah, depends on your woman. Males seem to want to breed all the time though.
