The sc elta torque

This is a crucial step for parental care, if parents are rehearsed, well fed and treated well, the worst is over. I'm not saying do not do this if you are not successful, there are many other cases of parental care occurred in different ways, but following these simple rules you have several chances of success. I take some small scalar and places them in the community tank, enhances them with all care, I look at them and was formed when the couple move the aquarium dedicated and leave alone. Sometimes I let it lay in the community, but there are too many tenants and have never been able to complete the brood, at most I arrived in three days of swimming fry. The same pair, once transferred, had no problems at increasing Scalarini.
I have not talked about because I think that kind of scalar the color and shape of fins little influence on parental care, if the parents eat the eggs or small, there is often a reason and if you discover it blames practiced genetic manipulation to get those types of scalars. For example photos of this article refer to a pair of scalars with gold fins icing: they are born in my tanks were kept taking the leaf and have always been in a tank OTRAC. The parents of this pair I had bought nearly mature and have never carried out the brood alone while their children are perfect parents.

The golden rules for parental care

summarize these points in some major steps to increase the likelihood of having a couple of small breeds, list them in alphabetical order because I do not know what is the most important .

Water: must be as similar to their natural environment, acidic, soft and with nitrates low, trying to maintain constant values.

Food: must be abundant and full, both for parents and for the fry, it is essential a large dose of nauplii of Artemia when the fry start to swim.

Torque: be very close and you should be formed by a group of young scalar, must not have been too much stress or trauma.

Use a night light does not improve or worsen the results, I did several tests with or without light and did not notice significant differences. Some even bring in a fish tank `` target''for the couple not to fight and to bring together against a common enemy. For me it's more important to avoid the risk that the fish eat the small when they begin to swim, so I do not recommend placing it, particularly if the tank is small.

What to do if there is something wrong

Do not be discouraged if the first attempts fail, when there is something wrong with the parents eat the eggs and tries again after a few days. Depending on when you eat the eggs causes could be as follows.

Up to two days: eggs may not have been fertilized, may be few, the couple may have been recently transferred into the tank or water parameters may not be suitable. If you think there are a few eggs to increase the food, if you think that the values \u200b\u200bof the water make big changes (25% every two days), otherwise just wait.

before starting to swim: value of water unfit or tenants in the tank too disturbing.

When swim: Tenants in the tank too disturbing, or scarcity of food for fish fry. E 'need to increase the amount of Artemia nauplii to be administered at least three times a day.

In any case one should carefully observe the behavior of the fish, the tank and do a number of measures to try to discover the cause of failure.
