Good luck, mine have gone into breeding colors several times in the last few months and I've yet to get fry from them.

JandaSeve · 02-02-2005, 07:38 PM

There is another male and female in there with them so hopefully that will help things along.

Do you find that your myrnae are shy?

jonah · 02-03-2005, 05:07 PM

Mine are.

JandaSeve · 02-03-2005, 06:56 PM

These guys aren't really that shy. They are one of the tanks that gets a lot more cumotion around it though.

Maybe that's my problem. I keep mine in a 20g by themselves and the only commotion is when I feed or do a water change. That might change when I move them into the 125g this Spring. It's in a high traffic area.

Yeh, when there is other fish in the tank to protect their toritary from it helps them bond much better. Better chances of getting fry...

nice pics and fish and congrats on the fry

I love the smaller Cryptoheros myself. I have sp. 'cutteri', sp. 'honduran red point', sajica and nanoluteus. I definitely wouldn't mind adding myrnae to the list one day.

i got some from Jeff Rapps a few months ago so i'm very excited to see yours breeding. i have them on a 100 gallon tank with Panamensis, nantuletous, sajica and centrachus all of which are to small to sex at this point.
