Spawning
Brushes for Ponds
If
you have never bred fish before, you will be amazed how simple it
can be with the help of Black Knight spawning brushes. The breeding
season is weather dependent but is normally from April to July.
You need one mature female and a minimum of two mature males. Place
the brushes just below the water level, one above the other, at
the edge of the pond. This will encourage the fish to spawn, which
usually happens in the early hours of the morning, having been preceded
by an evening of flurried activity in the pond. The spawning takes
several hours, during which most of the eggs will stick to the brushes.
It is best to put the brushes in filtered water of the same temperature
as before, and the fry will hatch in 3-6 days. The small fish should
be kept separate until they are large enough to be introduced to
the pond. After the spawning, it is a good idea to separate the
brushes from the brood fish, otherwise the eggs will be eaten.
Note:
Our spawning brushes are made from a soft material that won't harm
your fish. Do not use filter brushes for this purpose.
