Fish Breeding

Shubunkin is just a fancy name given to a specifically coloured Goldfish. Breeding one with a Golden coloured goldfish will result in about 33% that look like a Shubunkin and 33% that look like a Golden coloured goldfish and 33% that look like a mixture of the two. The above results would only be accurate if the breeder fish are properly line bred and their lineage is guaranteed. Otherwise you could get anything from coloured goldfish to uncoloured goldfish and a mixture of any kind of goldfish including Comets, Fantails and Veiltails.

Koi lay eggs.

Males have bigger and deeper mouth compared to females

Usually a female livebearer swims in sudden dashes from one spot to another when she is very close to giving birth and she continues to do this while she is dropping her fry. Often she will dash from close to the bottom (gravel) of the tank and end up near the surface. If you look closely at the place she dashed from you are quite likely to see tiny fish.

About the smallest sized tank I would advocate is 24"x 12"x12". The hard thing is not the breeding of the Bettas the hard thing is finding the room and facilities to rear the hundreds of baby fish (fry) that you will get from one successfull spawning.

There are Moscows, Deltas, Glass, Mosaics, Albino, Cobra, Coral, Flame, Tux, and many more. Here's a website that you can see different guppies pics:

Enjoy. Hope I answered your question.

It depends on the species of fish. Most short lived fish like livebearers will start breeding at a few weeks and so will many of the smaller silversides like Australian Rainbows, some tetras and some danios. Others like some of the larger cichlids may not start until they are several years old.

they go to the botton of the sea and lay eggs on a rock

They are sometimes available. Your local pet shop may have a contact or may even have a notice board. They are sometimes advertised in the classified columns.

Oh, at least six-eight months, I think. Depending on how well fed they are. Convict fish are very good parents!

No, they come out of a small tube under their body close to the tail fin called the ovipositor. There are, however, some fish commonly called "mouth brooders" that will either scoop up the eggs into their mouths and keep them there until they hatch or will keep the fry (baby fish) in their mouths until they're large enough to stand a better chance of surviving.

If you are refering to the different 'types' of goldfish eg Shubunkin and Lionhead yes they can breed with one another. The reason for this is that they are all developed by selection from the same species (Carassius auratus) so since they are the same 'species' they can breed together.

Between 2-7 days depending the temperature you maintained

Yes they are different variations/varieties of the same species.

Bring the temperature down to about 60' over time. Do not do it suddenly because it may kill your fish. Bring it down 2' every day until it gets to 60'.Then slowly bring it back up. This gives the fish the feeling it is summer which is when they breed. The fish will lay the eggs and the male will fertilize them. Then they try to eat all the eggs they can so you may want to take the fish out of the tank with eggs. After the eggs hatch they are safe and wont get eaten. Baby fish usually eat Brine Shrimp but there are other things you can feed them.

At about 6-7 months old

When a female is large and fully grown, she cannot be bred with small males as they will be unable to wrap her properly and the eggs might not be fertilised. Large, fully grown males should not be combined with very small females as they could hurt them. But as long as the two partners are not wildly different in size, there is no definite age. When a female no longer eggs up under conditioning and does not produce as many fertile eggs (lower hatch rate) or show interest in males it's probably time to retire her. When males do not show interest in females, do not build good nests or are no longer supple enough to wrap a female properly, it might be best to end their breeding careers as well.

No, their eggs are soft. Caviar is fish eggs.

Goldfish (Carassius auratus auratus) need enough water and the right temperature to breed, especially in pond settings. Breeding usually occurs after a significant temperature change such as occurs in the spring.

If you have a gravid (carrying eggs) goldfish, you will need the males to make egg laying possible. The males will chase, bump and nudge the female, and that will stimulate egg release. The eggs will attach to aquatic vegetation and hatch within 48-72 hours. It would be a good idea to remove all other fish at that time. Goldfish, and others, are known to eat the fry.

Angel fish are bony fish. Angel fish originate in the Amazon region of South America. They grow up to six-inches in length. Angel fish in home aquariums can live on flake food alone, but they love adult brine shrimp, black worms, mosquito larvae, and finely chopped earthworms.
