So my Malawi blue dolphins had eggs a couple days ago. I have 2 males and 2 females and the bigger male fertilized both females I separated both females in there own tank but unfortunately one of the females ate her eggs :( and whatever eggs fell on the floor I put in my diy egg tumbler I took look today and those eggs have hatched and are now wiggling yay!!just wanted to share that with everyone maybe post pics as they grow.
 
Congrats and looking forward to the pics!
 
I usually strip my female dolphins at 14 days. The fry are fully developed & I put them in a 10 gallon tank with an airstone. It is not unusual for a holding female to spit her fry into the net. After stripping her I then return the female back to the tank she was in. I think that this is less stressful than keeping her isolated in a tank by herself. :)
 
maybe about 4 inch i just stripped her and i have about 30-40 fry now just took pics too i put them in my 10 gallon too and put the female back in the tank she was in to recooperate :)IMG_4166.jpg
