The weather is warm and the temperature in the tank is 30 degrees. I have five or six babies who swim quite strange - gustily, with their heads up. Does anyone have any idea what is the reason?       #12 tonino Total Posts : 20 Reward points : 351 Joined: 8/27/2012 Location: Shumen, , BG Status: offline MBI: 60 Pnts MBI Site: Marine Breeding Initiative (MBI) Re:Breeding Journal, Species: [Pterapogon kauderni] Saturday, June 8, 2013 4:48 AM (permalink) This morning male spat about 40 babies (on the 25th day of incubation).

Male died . On 18.06.2013 male hold eggs and the same day died - stewed with eggs. Was posthumously awarded. Today, female cast eggs alone. Now 6-7 hours is swallowed eggs - behaves as a male. This normal? Someone watching something similar?
