| if you got them from the same place the i would not breed them together as they are most likely siblings and breeding sliblings can lead to issues down the track. best thing to do is to wait til they are getting mature and then look for someone to trade bloodlines with. I always have some growing on  _________________ Doug's Bristlenose eBook - The number one source of Bristlenose information and the most detailed breeding guide avaliable 3rd edition OUT NOW!!!

I always have some growing on  |
The fifth batch of eggs just hatched, and reading your post, I wonder what is the ratio to keep for further breeding? I have 60 eggs (average) per spawn, so how many I should keep? (5-10 per batch, or less/more?) Alltogether I have roughly 400 small ones ranging from 4 months old to 1 month old. |
