    Hi everyone i have a 34 gallon tank at home and im planning to breed some fishes
    Actually i wanted to breed angelfish , but after reading numerous posts,i decided not to breed them as it is hard to differentiate between the male and the female.

    Are there any suggestion as to what Egg-laying fish i could get.
    Here are some of the points i am looking out for:
    Cheap,Easy to breed , require little space ( a 34 gallon tank) to breed ,are egg-layers , and are really cool and attractive.
    I've read about a few easy to breed fishes
    -zebra danio
    -Cory

    But after googling up their pictures they are rather unattractive.

    So any suggestions
    Thanks in advance

    Most likely in front of the computer screen if the status is green.

    What type of fish keeping experience do you have? Maybe can start from there.

    Can i know how you define the points you list out?
    Cheap: Price range you are expecting to pay
    Easy to breed: The level of care you are expecting to give the pet.
    Require little space: All living in the same tank? or you have intention of getting more tanks or breeding nets.

    Btw: cheeft have mention 1 vital factor "Experience with keeping fish" and it will be easier for people to recommend.

    IMHO, If you have no experience in breeding/fish-keeping. Do try start by keeping without the intention of breeding, else imagine 20-30 baby fish survive and you end up buying many tanks

    I have an extra 10 gallon tank at home for the breeding tank . And I'm looking for a fish that's about 3-5 dollars and can be kept in the 34 gallon tank together when it's not breeding . My experience on fish breeding is reallly just guppys LOL

    By the way can I keep 6 breeding size angel fish in a 34 gallon tank to get a breeding pair then transfer the remaining 4 of them to my 10 gallon tank when 2 of them start to lay eggs?

    Or do it the other way round ( Just curious about angel fish breeding lol )
