Lookin' good!!!

Thanks ! I had two more fry die on Monday. After looking at them more closely, they seem under fed. So I have stepped up the amount I had been feeding them. Also adding BBS as a treat and freeze dried cyclopeeze (as per request of a LFS owner).

They do look nice.

You can see that the one has really had the crap beaten out of him.

Yeah the one in the second picture ! He's a fighter. I think most of his fin coloration is missing, not actually his fin. The dead fry I find usually have their tail fin missing. Which make it almost impossible for them to swim.

Geez these guys are slow growers. LOL Will try to sell them at the end of the month.

Update photo.

This guy is in my 10 gal fuge. See all the pods on the green algae.

Here's my oldest maroon fry. Can't remember how old he is. LOL My wife named him Popeye !

Thanks Joe ! Glad to see your back on the breeding forum.

I have eggs again. My white stripe maroon pair have laid again. It's been a while since the last clutch of eggs.

Egg update:
Well when I arrived home yesterday after work, I notice the male not guarding the eggs. Not a good sign. For good reason, all the eggs were gone. Maybe the peppermint shrimp had a midnight snack. My female looks very fat with eggs, so hopefully I will get another clutch to raise soon. Well back to getting my rot population up again. Reed's rot diet should arrive today.

Bummer Agsansoo. I'd catch that little pepperment shrimp and ... Well i'm not even going there..

 

[agsansoo]

False alarm ! Eggs are still on the rock. It's just hard to see them with the anemone covering them.

 

[agsansoo]

Eggs hatched out on Saturday night. I placed them into a 5 gallon bucket. In the morning all were dead. They appeared very small and thin when I caught them. I need to be more gentle during the transfer from the larvae snagger to the larvae tank or bucket.

 

[rkelman]

Bummer agsansoo.. Hopefully they lay again soon for you.

 

[agsansoo]

I really didn't have enough rotifers aways. Hope to see eggs soon. (crossing fingers)

I guess I'll be starting a new thread soon. My banggai cardinals appear to have spawned.
