true percs question

[jthao]

I'm new to breeding, so my question is what's required to breed a pair of true percs? equipment wise? I've read through the breeding section, but still unclear. for example, a reef tank requires: tank, good lighting/metal halides, lr, sand, sump, skimmer, etc.. So I really wanna know what is equipment is required to breed one pair of true percs. Any info would be great. maybe a link. thanks in advance

i have a pair of true percs that lay eggs all the time. its really cool to watch. the male seems to take care of the eggs. i dont see how any eggs would ever make it through filtration, i.e. protien skimming, filter floss etc... . do you want to get them laying or actually hatch the eggs? if you want to get them laying i would suggest an anemone first. theyll lay eggs at the base or somewhere close. nice lighting for the anemone, and moon lights. i cant hep much if you want to try and rear any fish. good luck. it took my pair a good while to start laying, but now its all the time.

the female lay eggs all the time. but never hatch. I'm just wondering what I need to do to start actually breeding.
