I’m glad you enjoyed it, it’s such a shame I couldn’t show the eggs in more detail. If only I have a microscope or something and not just a clip on macro lens! 😅 thanks for watching!
This is a little off topic ? But I had a 29 gallon community tank with a Betta, school of Zebra Danios & Neon Tetras plus Mystery Snails. I was surprised to see swimming frys totally unexpectedly ? I was cycling a larger 75 gallon for fish transfer/ stocking. I transferred fish and 8 Danio Frys survived and reachrd adulthood. I fed the swimming Danio frys Powdered Milk (unmixed) ?
Zebra danios spawn constantly, generally in the morning and with enough hiding places it’s not uncommon for fry almost just suddenly appear. So it’s awesome that you clearly had a diverse enough environment in your aquarium for the babies to do well. I would worry about the betta getting a little annoyed at the danios (and potentially their fins nipped) by their constant movement though. I guess it’s worked for you as it sounds like this has been a long established stocking and you’ve got a calm betta but they won’t all tolerate them so just be careful. I’ve never heard of powdered milk being used as a fry food but that’s awesome that it works the more options the better 👍🏼
I fed them a small powdered dry diet and rotifers from the yolk sac being used up. They started eating baby brine around 2 weeks in, it’s a bit too big initially for them.
I’m not sure they’re available easily, they are produced for zebra danio labs and I managed to pick this one up second hand. Sorry for not being much help
Very cool...zebra danios are sooooo underrated...great video 😊
They definitely are!! Thanks for the lovely comment, and for watching!

Great video, Thanks for sharing.
Where can I get me some of them little breeding tanks?
I got mine second hand I don’t know where you would get them from new. Perhaps need to be custom made?
It's cheaper to make your own! It's not hard if you think about it. Wal-Mart or the dollar store has plenty of plastic tray.
Amazon and fish stores
Came here to say this!!
I’ve looked everywhere for years and can’t ever find them.
Thank you

Where did you get the spawning tanks from Alex? Tia
I picked it up second hand locally I’m not sure I’ve ever seen them available new?

Really need those spawning tanks if anyone can post a link to them would be very helpful

What to feed as first food apart from egg yolk ??? Will baby brine shrimp work ?
I fed them a small powdered dry diet and rotifers from the yolk sac being used up. They started eating baby brine around 2 weeks in, it’s a bit too big initially for them.
Where can I get this breeding box?
