sorry.

@@bothetetrabreeder8734 What color did they have?

@@acvaristicacudichis They have a red stripe.

yes, the tetra would be perfectly fine without it if only for 1 day.

Hi Daniel, I only keep them for less than a day, so the tetras would be fine without aeration.

Thank you! I hope you too.

Thanks for watching and liking the video!

Thanks Jack and Dan, I sure will!!

Thanks, Brinegar, for your encouragement on my attempt to breed amapa tetras. I think I have taken all the possible steps I can think of to make these fish spawn. If I had used these methods for other tetras, I would already have fry. It is very possible that all of my 10 amapa tetras are female. I have already ordered 10 more smaller ones, hoping that at least half of them are male. For your black neon tetras, although they are very hardy, we should keep them in a heated tank. I must say that fish keepers often face this problem: never having enough tanks to accommodate all the fish. I am also struggling to find space for my tetra fry, as I have many breeding projects ongoing. I think I will soon succeed with the amapa tetras. What bothers me most is still the ruby tetras, which I have been trying to breed for over a year. Thanks for your continued support!

Hi Hans, in my country, this tetra is becoming more and more common as the price has drastically decreased due to successful artificial breeding. Even now, I don't think they are difficult to breed, and I tend to think that I might have bought all females... xd. I will make another attempt, and if it still fails, I will buy more small-sized Amapá tetras.

Hi Hans, thanks! Wow, really? Is it enough with just a few drops? I've never used this kind of product before. Do you know how to lower the pH to 5? I'm thinking maybe my ruby tetra needs a much lower pH to spawn. Thanks for your comment!

Hi my friend. It's a bit expensive for me to buy peat moss, and I feel like breeding cardinal tetras doesn't necessarily require lowering the pH. As you can see in my tetra breeding videos, I use an egg-separating box to prevent the eggs from being eaten. And for the fry, for the first week or so, I put them in a small container inside the tank so they won't get too close to the heater. Wish you good luck with your breeding project. Thanks for your comment.

Hi my friend, thanks for your comment and support! I'm glad to know that my videos helped. I have never bred any catfish, sorry...

Thanks my friend for your continued support!!

Thank you! Cheers!

Thanks so much for your kind words! To get recognition from a native of Neon Tetra's home country is a great honor.

@@bothetetrabreeder8734 If you use an aquarium where the starting PH is at 7.0, TDS 240-300 GH 3-4. Place thick PVC pipes upright. Place corydoras, feed them well. After 3 days, you start adding RO water until they spawn. And remove excess water. The RO water you add until the gH drops to 1-2 and PH to 5.5-6.0 ...There are three factors that you need to reduce: Ph, GH (TDS) and temperature, simulating the arrival of rain in the Amazon. voila, spawning corydoras or any Amazonian fish.

@@paulo_girao Thanks Sir, that's very helpful, I will definitely use this method to breed my ruby tetras.

yes xd

Hi, the problem is deformity, so I don't think lack of oxygen caused that. It's more due to the parent fish's problem.Thanks for your comment.

There's enough oxygen for them to stay there for 1-2 days

Hi, sorry for the late reply. Currently, I don't use tap water to breed them because it contains chlorine, which would harm the fish. I had many fish die due to this when I was breeding. Now, I only use local stream water. Thanks for your comment, and I think it's time for me to make a correction.

Unfertilized eggs will eventually turn into fungus, so that's why we need to pick out the good eggs in a clear water environment.

Thank you!

Hi, sorry for the late reply. That's because I catch them to breed during the nighttime. All fish would look pale if they are kept in the dark for some time. And it's easier for us to sex them as we can see eggs in the female cardinal's belly

Haha, exactly! There are so many different types of tetras, and that's why I love collecting them. Breeding each one of them is truly a rewarding experience.

Do you mean the little device that I use to suck up the fish food? I just went to check what it's called, and it's called a plastic dropper. Thanks for liking the video!😀

Thanks, Brinegar, for your continued support! Just as I mentioned in the video, the color of the ember tetra doesn't always exhibit such a red coloration; it will change depending on the water quality. Additionally, a black background can help enhance the color.

Dear Bo: If breeders select the reddest specimens, of ember tetra, from successive spawns; the resultant fish may approach red, rather than orange. I tried to select-breed fancy guppies, to exhibit only blue and black coloration (see UA-cam video: “Blue Guppies in a Shot Glass 2-16-19”). I thought I had succeeded. However, as they aged, some specimens exhibited orange. Thank you, for all you do, for the FishFam Community. Sincerely, Brinegar

Эта рыба очень крепкая и совсем не нежная.

@@Юрий-ф5б3о Я бы, пожалуй, дал им шанс, они очень хорошо смотрятся в аквариумах с растениями. 🙂

@@Sinserg у меня их 15 штук, ни одна не умерла за 6 месяцев

@@Юрий-ф5б3о Здорово! Это дает мне надежду. 😬

Thanks, Sergio, for your comment! Yes, the Ember tetra is the easiest tetra to breed, and I'm sure you'll also get tons of fry if you try. Good luck!

Hey my friend, I think you did a great job on your first breeding attempt! I'm sure in your next attempt, you will get fry. This is something I always encountered when I first bred my new tetra. I'm happy to know that my video was helpful, and thanks for your comment!

Thanks Jack and Dan for your support!

中国的啦

Hi, my friend. If you don't have thousands of eggs, I think you don't need methylene blue.

This is one of the few places in my house that is quiet and undisturbed. I wish I had a special room for breeding tetras. Thanks for your comment.

Yes, I did. I thought having too many eggs in one tank would lead to a poor hatching rate. However, the actual result was that the hatching rate wasn't bad, but all the hatched chicks died due to deformities. It must have been caused by inbreeding. I know my method wasn't effective, but I did it for hobby purposes.

@@bothetetrabreeder8734 maybe not enough food variety.

@@bothetetrabreeder8734 I used peat granules for aquarium filters in a tea bag in my aquarium to create acidic natural environment. Turned all my lights off next day in the morning I saw my neons, tetra minors,other tetras they all were breeding in the aquarium. So maybe try peat granules...

that's a good suggestion, thanks.

Ok dear, I 'll do that in one of the future vidoes.

Yes, I also had ember tetra fry emerging from the dense plants in my tank, but that was just a rare occasion. Thanks for your comment!

I avoided exposing the fry to the light by covering the tank. But thanks for your comment.

Thanks for your comment! I'm glad to know that you have succeeded. Are they able to eat baby brine shrimp? Once they are able to eat those, they are 90% safe.

Glad it was helpful!

Hello, thanks for your comment. I didn't acclimate my fish from tank conditions to conditions in the jar, because the water parameters in the tank are pretty much the same as those in the jar. The only difference is that the water in the jar is fresh water, which would stimulate spawning. I don't specifically adjust the pH to 6 when breeding neon tetras or even cardinal tetras, as, from my experience, they don't strictly need acidic water to spawn. Fresh water will suffice. However, acidic water might increase the spawning rate. I've only had fish deaths when breeding due to untreated chlorine. But I'd say a sudden drop in pH does shock the fish, so you need to do this process slowly, for example, by putting some pH-lowering media like catapa leaves or soft water resin into the breeding tank, like I did for the ruby tetras.

@@bothetetrabreeder8734 got it so you can start with adding the tetras then as they are in the breeding bins you can then add tannin reducing leaves so they adjust to it. Thank you for the reply

Thank you!!!

Thank you for your nice comment! I think raccoon tetras are hardy fish. They are not picky eaters and are much easier to care for than neon tetras or cardinal tetras.

LOL, good one! But don't worry, all the magic in this fiber comes from nature itself.

I have heard of this tetra and will try it in the future. I'm struggling to breed ruby tetras, and it's been going on for almost a year!

不了，谢谢

@@bothetetrabreeder8734 😩，好吧

That's cool.

Hi my friend, if you mean for the first few days after the fry start swimming freely. You can feed them egg yolk solution. But for me, I just feed them BBS directly. Sooner or later, we will have to feed them BBS, it is an irreplaceable food for the fry. I can't think of any other food that's better than BBS.

@@bothetetrabreeder8734 BBS is way too pricey in here. I could culture mosquito larvae for them after they start free swimming

Hi my friend, thanks for your question. For me, I just feed them baby brine shrimp as soon as they are free swimming. The trick is that you need to put the fry in a small container, so the fry can find the BBS easily. You can see in many of the videos that my fry can eat baby brine shrimp at a very early stage (5-6 days after hatching). Another option for first food is egg yolk solution. I hope they work for you too.

Hi my friend. As a guy who's been breeding tetras for many years, I'm confident in saying that we need to wait at least 5 days before the fry is able to eat anything. I agree with you that a low temperature is not good for the fry, and tannins are good for the fry as well. Thanks for your comment.
