Do NOT give them flake. It rots and fouls the water. If you don't have other
live foods like daphniae, use newly hatched brine shrimp. At worst, use
frozen foods, but in my opinion (11th commandment), never use flake foods in
a breeding tank. As Tyrone indicated, your temperature is much too high.
These are cool water fish. Also, the eggs are sticky and may be covered with
peat so you can't see them. The eggs aren't like notho eggs that aren't
sticky and stand out.
