First spawn is eating good, Peter is bringing me the rest tomorrow, I'll have them ready in about 2 months. Ken

Thanks JD

Most are in good hands at Ken's and eating well. I saved a few from the first spawn to play with.

Here is a vid from this morning. Female hasn't eaten for 10 days but still refusing bloodworms...very very impressive.

The convicts of south america ... only worse since their harem breed *snickers*

LOL at least they don't fight over it

I'm keeping a few from the first spawn to play with - they'll probably end up at Ken's at some point. It's fun to watch they swim/rush into the female's mouth when I scare them

Awsome tank, can't wait to get started.

 

[Gigit]

how long did it take for them to get that size?

Is there a particular breeder that you made those purchases from?
