Any one keep Frontosa Tembwe, I have had numerous spawns but only one fry, I pull eggs they look healthy, then a few days into tumbleing they get white. I have Kigoma so i know healthy eggs and the tembwe eggs just break up. Any tips at all would be appreciated. My group is 2male 6female, only had them 5 months. Pic of dominaint female

If you are looking to breed them, I suggest you put your spawners into a different tank. If you are not having any luck with tumblers, then I suggest you stop tumbling them. Let mom and dad take care of them. This is the best way to get healthy offspring.

It sounds like they are not being fertilized, maybe you pulling them isn't giving dad enough time to fertilize.
