Stolen from the MARS forum when someone asked about fragging links. But I wanted to give credit for who found them and posted.

It was fun talking frags with all of you. Here are some fragging links:

Thanks to Paul and all of our supporters for another fantastic raffle. I will do my best to post photos later.

I did a search for banggai babies to find a local thread where I have been quoted. What a surprise!

micynyorkies, how are your banggai babies doing? I have a batch that is 8 days old now. This is my 3rd attempt. The timing was right this time and I was prepared. I'd love to share experiences with you. I guess breeding one thing leads to breeding another. I used to breed Rottweilers.

Here is the other fragging link that I couldn't find when I posted the other two. ---Enjoy!

My first two batches are doing great, and it appears that a third batch is on it's way. On my way out the door this morning, I noticed 2 babies in the refugium. The dad still has a mouthful, but the babies must be getting too big and he spit his least favorites out.

Congrats! Are you setting up a new tank for each batch?

 

[micynyorkies]

No, but I am in a quandry now! I put the second batch in a breeder net within my 10 gallon where the first batch lives. Now, I need to put the third batch somewhere. I am debating whether or not to release the 2nd batch with the first (although the first are considerably larger than the 2nd), and put the new ones in the breeder net.

Lets see some pics! Wow, you really are having great luck with banggai breeding.

Here is where I go for expert advice:

Post a question for Frank.

I'm pretty sure they need to be kept with those of their own size though. Sounds like it's time for you to build a breeding station.

 

[micynyorkies]

Thanks! Luckily there were homes for the first batch, so I can put off setting up a breeding station for awhile!
