Question

its been two months since the white tube appears in my female oscar fish.

in my large tank i have one male oscar and female oscar fish

i currently feeding them earthworm and the temperature around 28*C to 30*C

i also have a comfortable flat rock for them to lay eggs

can anybody tell me how long its take to lay eggs

Answer 1

It shouldn't take long. Does the male appear to be interested in her, or the other one? Try feeding them a little more variety of foods. Bloodworms, brine shrimp, and some flakes. Raise the temperature one more degree. They should breed in no time!

Answer 2

White tube from your female oscar fish means it is about to breed. It should take about to weeks to lay eggs. Do not raise the temperature anymore. Raise 1 degree when it was 26*C. 28*C-30*C is the best temperature for breeding and growth purposes, above 31*C will kill your fishes.
