Hello, my Jd's have had there mating colors for quite a while now and they have been sucking up rocks out of a house like thing I have in the tank and spitting them on the outside of the house like they are making a nest how long will this go on? the female looks bloated like she maybe full of eggs is that how it works with them?and if so how long before she lays them?when she does lay her eggs how long till they hatch?sorry so many questions. I am setting up a 15 gallon seeded nursery tank today b/c when there are little one's or if there are little one's I don't want them to be lunch for all the other fishes . if we do end up with fry I heard they can eat frozen krill or blood worm's is this true? Thank's in advance.....Cindy...p.s the tank water test's perfect but I really need to vaccum but I don't want to bother mommy and daddy any idea's?
