    Just a FYI I’ve seen cardinals almost 3 inches long in a public aquarium. I’ve also kept a school for at least 10 years - that another big difference between cardinal and neon tetras.

    New sub! Thanks for the video!❤ I’ve been wanting to breed my current community of cardinal tetras. Right now their water parameters are at the opposite end for breeding because they are in with my mystery snails. How should I go about moving them from their current setup to one with the parameters for breeding? Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! ❤

    It'll be interesting to see how your methods differs from that of Marks Aquatics ! Great video!

    I have some cardinals in a 60cm planted community tank.
    Should I condition them in that tank for a few weeks before moving them to a breeding tank, or move them first before conditioning?
    Would it be best to separate the sexes and condition them? I figure if you have them together for a few weeks whilst conditioning, what's stopping the female from laying eggs each day and thus not having many when "breeding day" comes (where you remove them the next day to avoid eating fry since they hatch quickly).
    Thanks in advance

      1 drop / 100ml

    • @Spudz81
      @Spudz81 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Depends on your methylene blue medication. I have a concentrated version which is 1 drop per 3 litres.

    We think that larger and more expensive fish are better but in reality easy and inexpensive fish are more enjoyable!!

    Good job, Dude! A quick question. How much yield do you normally end up in breeding cardinal tetra? Thanks!

    • @AvatarAquatics
      @AvatarAquatics  ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends on how long you keep them in there and how much breeding the cardinals do. it varies

  • @johnprilsantander7372
    @johnprilsantander7372 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can they breed in 5 gal tank with just moss and without filtration and water movement?

  • @Giftig--Daniel-P
    @Giftig--Daniel-P ปีที่แล้ว

    Just found your channel. Love this! What plant do you have in the bottom there at 4:22? The tiny one. Also what substrate are you using in this?
    Same timestamp.

    • @AvatarAquatics

      Monte Carlo grown on UNS Controsoil

  • @fernandogonzalez-fm1dq
    @fernandogonzalez-fm1dq 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    So how is the cage built, what type of moss are you using also? Is the top part a different grid or just different color ?

  • @Giftig--Daniel-P
    @Giftig--Daniel-P ปีที่แล้ว

    What test kit are you using for this? I use API but they don't have a KH/GH test? I'm just getting into this. I've had fish off and on my whole life, but really want to breed Cardinals now that I'm a bit older and more experienced.

  • @thebeigesheep6132
    @thebeigesheep6132 ปีที่แล้ว

    My cardinals are small and thin. Are they just babies or will they grow and fatten up? Idk if I just got a bad batch. They don't have much red

    • @AvatarAquatics
      @AvatarAquatics  ปีที่แล้ว

      feed some live baby brine shrimp, and depending on how long you've had them it can change. I conditioned these for a few months before breeding them

    how well does the ram get along with the cardinals and the rummynose?

    • @AvatarAquatics
      @AvatarAquatics  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They’re fine as long as the rams don’t breed

    Hi, I have been trying to get my Paracheirodon Simulans (green neons) to breed for a good 3 months now but this getting 'comfortable' at '29°C' is completely new to me. So, as I haven't been able to find any usable breeding instructions for specifically Simulans I'll give this method a go.
    You mention collecting more eggs using the peat bottom, but do you keep and condition the adults in that tank in the same manner as in the pure RO tank? And how do you know a spawning took place since finding eggs in the peat seems kindof hard?

    • @lemonlizard1
      @lemonlizard1 ปีที่แล้ว

      yeah I'm going to try green neons too. I've heard it's recommended to warm up the water since it signals warmer weather (aka spring) which is optimal breeding for them. Cardinals like it much warmer than green neons so I wouldn't go up that high but 26.5 may be enough okay. Good luck!

  • @princetrophies
    @princetrophies 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Does the peat moss float? Is it a big mess to get settled?

  • @giyords
    @giyords ปีที่แล้ว

    I don’t have a Infusoria culture but I do have a water worm culture will they take these okay they are minute

    • @AvatarAquatics
      @AvatarAquatics  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Better to start an infusoria culture. I have a video on it on my channel because the fry are very very small
