They must take up a whole lotta tank space eh. Did ya breed and raise those?
They are a very prolific species. I have two 4ft tanks full of young praecox although some will be gone soon.
There are some here (with young platys & galaxys)

That’s a nice male ! :lol:

Rainbowfish almost certainly. Praecox will breed all the time and hang their eggs on floating plants. The fry are very dark.
I would agree with mummymonkey.I once moved java moss from a community tank to put into a breeding tank to provide cover for a female dwarf gourami.It ended up that I had a load of Praecox rainbows in with my dwarf gourami fry.

Wonderful!
Truly.So then I really am the only person here that hasn’t gotten eggs or fry…
Everything should be right, but somehow, for them, something still isn’t.Maybe I’ll try playing that thunderstorm recording again loudly next to the tank, and do frequent, smalll water changes, and turn the the temp up a notch.
My family laughed last time I did the thunderstorm thing, but then, they don’t understand…Besides, my fishys weren’t nearly so beautiful back then.
At least I have my baby dwarf platies to raise. They’ve doubled in size already I think. Soon they’ll be on to BBS when I have the time and finely ground fish powder when I don’t. I have a ton of diffferent foods to chose from, so I’ll do the variety thing.

No you are not the only one that hasn’t spawned them.I got a group of 12 fry a few months ago to grow on.I also bought the last two from my lfs to go with them.I have put them in a tank with java moss & woollen mops & just left them to grow.There has been no sign of anything yet but one day. :lol:
