Hi everyone,
I have a pair of b/turks 2yrs old, they have been laying eggs for nearly 12mths now but the eggs don't seem to be fertile. i.e. go white within 24 hrs and get eaten. I also have a female ss so i thought i would swap the females to see if the male is upto the task. They laided eggs within a week of putting them together, same thing happened with the eggs. From everthing i have read here the water quality & maintanence of tanks is good, but my question is could the male be completely infertile or is he still maturing? What is the rough age that males mature?
Thanks Ben.
