Who Gives A Fish Forums

Bare bottom's the way to go for sure. And if you're not already, try adding some Indian almond leaves. They release tannins, help mimic their natural habitat and keep things chill.

Yep, almond leaves are magic. Also, what's your feeding schedule like? Maybe bump up the variety, throw in some brine shrimp or blackworms.

Agree on the leaves. Also, make sure your filter flow isn't too strong. Eggs can get blown around, stress the parents out.

This is all great info. Gonna take notes for when mine start breeding.
