I want to know how many days it will take to grow big after fish come out from eggs??? and after came out what precautions or feeding we can give to them??? Please answer urgently...I am having aquarium at my home and just baby fish came out from eggs...Just same like shown in this video.

ChrisFix - 9 years ago

Goldfish lay eggs and when the eggs hatch they will eat their young. After the eggs are fertilized you can put the goldfish in another tank or put a lot of places the babies can hide if your tank is big enough.

GeniTheOtaku - 9 years ago

+ChrisFix i think my fish is pregnant do u know if goldish eat their young because i have 3 and im worried that might happen

ChrisFix - 10 years ago

+Viral Parekh It depends on which species you are talking about. Let me know and I can help. You want to separate the larger fish from the baby fish because most species will eat the babies.

Lexcorp - 10 years ago

my fish die yesterday but she lay eggs and i dont have male what should i do? (bad english sorry)

ChrisFix - 10 years ago

+Alexis Maun No, what happens is the female lays the eggs and as the female lays the eggs the male fertilizes them in the water as they come out of the fish.

Lexcorp - 10 years ago

ok then, so you mean that I need the original male who had sex to the female, right?

ChrisFix - 10 years ago

+Alexis Maun You would need to milk the male because it isnt going to fertilize eggs that are just sitting there. The male will also have to be ripe.

Lexcorp - 10 years ago

+ChrisFix OK so you are starting to help me, then what about i use another male?

ChrisFix - 10 years ago

They need a male to be fertilized. If they are fertilized they can survive on their own. It is actually better there are no other fish to eat them.

Lexcorp - 10 years ago

+ChrisFix what about if the eggs alone no male no female? if the eggs gonna hatch or die?

ChrisFix - 10 years ago

+Alexis Maun There is really nothing you can do unless you know someone who can milk a ripe male and put that on the eggs.

Eli Muhammad - 10 years ago

well ive looked all over the only explenation is for them to be snail eggs there are no babies still alive in my aquarium

ChrisFix - 10 years ago

The dots mean it was probably fertilized. These fish do not protect their eggs so what you are seeing is probably nothing.

Eli Muhammad - 10 years ago

well i found the sack and there were no eggs in it do they atleast linger around where they layed their eggs even though they dont know it? or maybe its just bcause they spend some time there and thats why i thought they were rpotecting them they were stuck to a rock and they look to big to come out of the snail infestation in my aquarium however the sacks are empty and i cant spot any fry i do see another batch of eggs around where the snails dominate they are clear eggs in clear sacks some of the eggs have dots in the that led me to believe they were fertilized

ChrisFix - 10 years ago

I dont know if the tetras are capable of knowing they laid eggs and are protecting them. They will typically eat their own eggs

Eli Muhammad - 10 years ago

ive seen some of my tiger bards nipping at the piece of gravel they were on and when they do i just scare them away the tetras surround that aria like sharks kinda but they dont defend their eggs they got knocked over off the rock they were on and my tetras were looking for where they layed them is this rpoof of the being neon tetra eggs?

ChrisFix - 10 years ago

+Eli Muhammad Tetra eggs will be small so dont worry. These eggs in the video were encased by a membrane that allows water and oxygen to move in and out. If you have fish in the tank, I would pay attention because they will eat the eggs.

Eli Muhammad - 10 years ago

This is one of the most beautiful hings i have ever seen including a human ultrasound and my own platy fry in my aquarium i have fish eggs and i just wanted to see some for my own eyes and came across this video if i take care of my neon tetra eggs they should have a reality as beautiful as this one i didnt mean to get a male and a female and i didnt mean for them to spawn but they did and i see little dots in the eggs so i know they were fertile i left them in light when i didnt know i wasnt supposed to i look forward to this but i have to ask yo were they in a very small bag or were they in a yoke like sack? i have somewhat of a jelly membrane around mine and the eggs are just hours old but still so small i know that they are alive but shouldnt they look bigger and also i cant help but think they look fuller (the eggs) when i see them and that they were becoming more vivid to see and also i think my pleco knocked them over they were layed in plain sight and knocked off the side of a rock cause they were on a gravel piece

This is a great video, thanks for sharing, do you have any recomendations for lightning the embryos? i would like to know what kind of light do you use, do you have anny technical paper of the development of that particular species or a description of how were they kept until hatching? im really interested in the info that you may provide, thaks in advance.

ChrisFix - 10 years ago

No, I dont... This was just a little outreach video I made.

Ruben Zepeda - 10 years ago

Ruben Zepeda - 10 years ago

+ChrisFix Its amazing what you may find in youtube, Im working on the development of a brother species of fundulus grandis, would you mind sharing the webpage of your institute, or some web page were I may consult what you do! I really appreciate your help

ChrisFix - 10 years ago

No, this is for research, but I dont have access to the papers we used right now lol... The dark background does the trick. Angle the lights so they are horizontal to the eggs (low angle).

Ruben Zepeda - 10 years ago

+ChrisFix Thankyou very much for your response, I use a remote fiber optic lighting too, but your footage seems to look better, maybe the dark background does the trick! I thought you did this for some kind of research, but seems to be your hobbie! which is amazing, very good video again

ChrisFix - 10 years ago

We use remote fiber-optic microscope lighting. They are kept in a moist paper towel moistened with freshwater until about 30days after being fertilized. I dont have any papers off the top of my head but I am sure there is scientific literature on husbandry of killifish larvae. To hatch them, just add 10ppt seawater.

ChrisFix - 11 years ago

Im making a new video this week that shows how I hatched oyster toadfish eggs so stay tuned!

ChrisFix - 11 years ago

It is going to be tough because besides the eggs you need a male to fertilize the eggs (done externally). Otherwise there is no life. If they get fertilized then you can put them in a separate bowl with only a little water and a bubbler (allows for more oxygen exchange).

Tung To - 11 years ago

i have a glofish thats about to lay some eggs and idk how i should like take the eggs from the tank to put them in a seprate bowl bcuz i dont know how big they're ganna be and i dont wanna risk smashing the egg and if u have skype that would be alot easier

Ayesha Chowdhury - 11 years ago

Sora No Ao - 11 years ago

ChrisFix - 11 years ago

In nature, the minnow will lay the eggs on marsh grass on a spring high tide (the highest tide of the month). The eggs will stay moist but not be submerged until the next spring high tide (~30 days later). So if the embryos are around 30 days old, if you add water it takes all but a min or two for them to start hatching. This first one hatched in 1min 30sec after being submerged.

Nick Opack - 11 years ago

No, they are saltwater killifish (Fundulus grandis). Yea, beta-fish are tricky to breed. You should do some research because the males can get aggressive to the females. It would be neat to do though!
