  • First time that I saw Red Rainbow eggs

    My Red Rainbow tropheus are doing the nasty again while I am sitting here watching them. It is not the first time, but what I did notice is that the size of the eggs that the female laid are really large. Or just larger then what I thought that they would be. They looked like they were 2-3mm in diameter. Did not see how many she had because by the time that I got close enough she had them all in her mouth. Just thought that I would share it with you.

        Imagine petro eggs. I believe petro eggs are a bit larger.

                Yes it is. When you work so hard to get them breeding and then behold the glory of it. Yahoo.

                  If petro eggs are even larger then how is it that Don's Bulu's hold so many. They have got to be huge.

                    Petros have massive mouth cavities

                      Yeah but also remember rainbows don't hold that many eggs unlike other variants. But it is amazing how they can hold that many in their mouth but they are designed to do so

                            exactly is not like we are comparing them side by side to make such judgement. I once had a RR hold 17eggs and recently had a brichardi ujiji hold 27

                              What are you talking about? I said nothing about size just about the number they hold. I had a kiriza hold 32 once
