So glad İ found a fellow tetra-phile , your videos are crazy good
Can't wait for the next videos ❤
❤Huge Thnx for this wonderful video. I enjoyed it and learned so much. You are a superb presenter
Wow amazing.
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.
Appreciate you dawg
Hi can you please make a video on how to breed glow light tetras? Please
Wow nice I am not into breeding fish but it's very interesting.
Good video, new sub
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 ?
Does the peat moss float? Is it a big mess to get settled?
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.
Can they breed in 5 gal tank with just moss and without filtration and water movement?
Does neon and cardinal breed in any season?
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.

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?

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

Depends on how long you keep them in there and how much breeding the cardinals do. it varies
how well does the ram get along with the cardinals and the rummynose?

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

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

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

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

Detritus worms, safe and eats excess food
We think that larger and more expensive fish are better but in reality easy and inexpensive fish are more enjoyable!!
