Colombian Tetras Breeding

Post by Ltrepeter2000 »

I was doing a little cleaning of the tank at the office and realized that I have about 15-20 Columbian Tetra fry swimming around right now. They are about a quarter of an inch right now. Its been a long time since I managed to get any tetras to breed successfully.

The parents are two of six in the tank, no idea which two.

They look like this one:

No, I got these from Petsmart in Gainesville for the office tank. The ones that you brought over passed in the green monster.

I'm down to one bloated venerable Colombian tetra from "back in the day". Mine made war, not love.
