How to successfully strip cichlid eggs and put in egg tumbler.
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
Hey guys just to spare the drone videos i have while on lockdown i said ide put this up to show you step by step on removing eggs from cichlids female,
The reason why ive done this is because they lose half the eggs due to either swallowing or spitting out. The one thing i dont like is them not eating for 24 days while they hold the eggs then the fry of babies, Also if they let the babies out they will be eaten by the other fish, All cichlid breeders do this to save the babies as in the wild they can let out off mouth and eat then they can take back into mouth so that is why this is done no harm done to fish during this recording,

That was really cool Fran, I didn’t know they would hold them in their mouths like that to keep other fish from eating them...totally cool video. Nice tank and being able to watch the babies hatch would be super cool, thanks for sharing

I've never seen it like this Fran, they're mouthbrooders. The fish carry the eggs in their mouths and hatch the small fish there. Then the little fish swim out of the mother's mouth after hatching and swim back in again. The fish mother always carries the little ones around in her mouth.

Hi my friend I've no other tank to put her into. I had 3 off them that were all carrying eggs and the males wouldn't leave them alone stressing them out one off the 3 spit out all her eggs and they were eaten. So I looked on youtube and when you have so many fish in tank the baby fry won't survive so that's why these egg tumblers were made as soon as I get the new tank I will put female's carrying into it so they won't be chased around.

I had no choice to help her as she was been tormented in the tank when I bought the fish in bulk I didn't know the sex off the fish till now there's way too many males in tank so there going to a friend off mine this week I was afraid they would kill her.

I set up my tumbler exactly like you have it. Same tumbler. But the eggs aren’t “tumbling”. They’re just lying there. air stone and pump are working. Should o be worried? How do I get them to tumble around?

Only when there big enough that they won't fit in other fishes mouths
if you putt the eggs away from the parent can they still attack the other fish because of protecting the child

Heya pal what you have to do firstly is wait till the eggsacks are completely gone and there swimming ok. So to put into a new tank make sure it's the same temperature as tank they were in already and some off the water out off the original tank you took them out off hope this helps
