![]() reidi has much larger broods, BTW, due to their naturally low survival rate of palegic fry...
sorta like sea turtles...one in a thousand makes it ![]() |

![]() I don't just mean brood size, I mean bam bam babies every two weeks for years. I actually had to change the temp to reduce the frequency. alls i'm saying, if you can get it right and raise the fry i would say reidis are easier to breed (which is the question?). barb fry are easier to care for.
i do prefer barbs though, and would get those again over reidis |

![]() That's interesting...Diana...yours went a little differently than mine did...
my barbs and reidi both (quite literally) pumped out babies like clockwork every 2 wks when I had them. I had to change the photoperiod to get them to stop. Bad idea coz after that they never bred for me again after that ![]() My barbs would throw 20-40 fry each batch, whereas the reidi averaged 250 per batch |
