hi everybody welcome again to another episode of fish keep in jamaica welcome to my channel
all right so here you see uh some fish swimming these are my newly acquired uh tiger bobs
and i got my tetra a few weeks ago i bred my tetra you saw the fly swimming
but i guess it was the temperature but indoor and outdoor they are dyed
so i'm presently i'm grooming them yes grooming them for future breeding purposes so how do i
actually groom uh these fish for for for future breeding purposes uh the number one thing is that
these fish are females right so they all have bulgy stomachs right cool and what i try to do
i try to feed them a high protein nutritious food so that they will be healthy and strong
so uh their eggs will develop and will be easily fertilized in the new in the first
quarter of uh 2021 right so i what i did also has to ensure that i do not have the prem mature um
not primitive ejaculation but premature expulsion of the eggs um by these uh tetra and the verbs uh
is to actually separate the males from the females so in this aquarium i have all the females right
and you have of course you have seen my other video in which i've shared with you uh the
best possible way to breed your teacher and the barbs so i'll be using that strategy so as to get
some fries out of these um ladies right and i am presently um trying to get one our puns outside to
grow a lot of algae so that when the fries are there they'll be able to um feast on the algae
and the microscopic organism so uh to us to get that what i did was to actually place two fish
in it yeah millionaire female to actually breed right and it will take a while for them to be
because they are newly coupled and water uh will end up allowing the side of the pawn to get green
so by the time uh they have actually a lid flies have actually grown uh the water the side siding
on the ponds should become green uh with algae laced with algae and it should be nutritious for
um other fries that may be coming that way uh what i've also done so as to prepare
um these bars and these tetra to have healthy mountain fries um in the very near future is
to separate the males and the females now the males are in a different aquarium meals are here
uh yeah males are not different aquarium in comparison to the females
right and the meals are normally smaller in size
than the female right so that means us the males are smaller in size than the female
right and um they will actually chase each other right around the little aquarium which
they have while these females will end up getting stomachs that are really very large
right and when i've seen them looking very large now then i will take out a male and a female and
i'll use the same procedure that i did i'll put a link to that video um at the at the within the
description of this video so you can actually see how i do it so this is like a starter for my birds
and my teacher to be bred so i'll keep you up to date i showed it to you um when they are ready
to be placed together and i show you every step and hopefully this time when fries do come
ah they will be able to go to fruition a few months ago these tiger barbs were no way to be
found within the pet shops i could have found um touches but i couldn't find any barbs right um
so i found them and i i've always liked the idea of reading them but um it is a little
bit technical because they it's just like the cardinal and the neanderthal very very sensitive
to water parameters including temperature so uh join me next video uh video update on these fish
i showed you uh where we are at regard uh this fish bye bye for now catch you next time peace
