When does three lake cichlid breed and what are the signs before breeding

The reproductive sign of three lake cichlid species with matrix reproduction is that the female fish is not very swimming and is near the spawning cave or shell for a long time. Male fish will swim and patrol nearby. The reproductive sign of the three lake cichlid species of mouth hatching breeding is that the female fish does not eat, the mouth is bulging, and is not very gregarious. They often live alone and do not interact with other fish. The incubation time is about half a month. 1、 When does three lake cichlid breed? Under natural conditions, three lake cichlid mainly has two breeding times, one is spring and the other is autumn. Because it has many varieties, the specific breeding time of different varieties may be different, but most varieties will reproduce in spring or autumn. In the artificial breeding environment, as long as the fish are sexually mature and the breeding environmental conditions are relatively suitable for reproduction, they are likely to reproduce. 2、 What are the signs before the reproduction of three lake cichlid? 1. Three lake cichlid mainly has two modes of reproduction. Some species are matrix breeding. Male and female fish will lay eggs in caves or shells, and then female fish hatch to take care of eggs. Male fish patrol outside caves or shells. The sign of this breeding method is that the female fish does not swim very much and stays near the spawning cave or shell for a long time. The male fish will swim and patrol nearby.

2. Another part of species of three lake cichlid is hatching. The female fish will lay on the bottom sand, and then the male fish will complete fertilization, and the female fish will contain the fertilized eggs in the entrance to protect the eggs. Then the eggs hatch in the mother's mouth. This mode of reproduction is characterized by the fact that the mother fish does not eat, has a bulging mouth, and is not very sociable. The incubation time is about half a month, and some species of fish may take a little longer. (SanHuCiDiaoShenMeShiHouFanShi,FanShiQianYouShenMeZhengZhao)
