So I have some yellow labs who have bred. I waited until the females spat them and have them in a airstone based hob breeder. I clean the breeder with a straw and tubing once a week and perform regular water changes In the main tank which is the water source. I also have a tmc uv off the canister
The parents are from LFS. I fed the fry baby brine then moved to golden pearl and have moved now to Aquapharm growth and maintenance.
Every few weeks I find one dead. I've lost 6 so far, always the smallest. The largest look healthy and act fine. Most of the fry have survived a few months now. Water tests fine, I have cichlid salts and buffer to mimic the correct hardness and ph. No other fish losses
My previous breeding experience was guppies, so just wanted a sanity check.
