thanks for all of the great advice seems my bn need a few extras in their diet. i never did any further research into it because they seemed to be doing fine. xD i isolated the bettas anyway because if they were really determined they could get into where the male is guarding his eggs. thankfully noone's having a hissy fit and stopped eating (or started tail chewing). i'll post pictures when/if i can get them xD my bristlenoses i'm fairly sure actually are bristlenoses, they're just lacking their bristles. :D

thought that'd be the case. i lack 'spare' tanks at the moment though xD if it wasn't so stupidly cold i'd just jar the bettas. shall have to fix my second hang on seperation thing for the last 3 of the bettas or go buy a new one tomorrow. lets hope they dont hatch until then. I wish i knew when exactly the bristlenoses had spawned. ohwell... any thought on food for the little guys? and will my hang on filter be a problem? should i cover/mesh the intakes?

hey all, ive been away for ages. after moving to toowoomba from brisbane about a week and a half ago i was rearranging a couple things in my tank and have discovered that my albino bristlenoses have spawned (yay!). The thing is that they share a tank with 1 male betta and 5 females. I want the baby bristlenoses to survive when they hatch so i'm wondering what i should do with the bettas? are they okay to stay loose in the tank (i'm thinking a lot of babies will get eaten) or should i move them elsewhere (another tank/a couple of those hang on isolation tanks)? and what should i feed the baby BN? Is throwing in the algae tablets their parents get okay? many thanks Susan
