Carpintis and BP Spawn.

Me too man. Every minute there are more coming out of the gravel...Also I took a few hundred out and put them downstairs...
 
Lol, that's crazy. I dissapoint myself.. I can't seem to successfully pull more than a few fry and I don't like letting my parents raise fish when there are other fish in the tank. Every time I pull fry they either all die or I end up with like 10.
 
Try putting the fry in a 90 ;) and also take care to cover intakes, and pay attention to gravel size...they like to burrow naturally, and then they suffocate down there. Bare bottom yields the most fry.

I usually just pull my filters and move them to another tank. Sponge filters will do the job for fry. I have to start going bare bottom on tanks I expect my fish to breed in. I've always used 10gallons for fry, I need to try something bigger..
 
10 gallons yields about 10 fry usually...no matter what I am breeding..20's however do about 50...Moss, and snails are clutch for me :)

Never heard that, but I did watch my saggitae numbers drop down to about exactly 10 after I moved at least 30 of them to the 10gallon.. Will it help if I throw a ball of moss in there next time? Next time I'll probably just empty out one of my 20's anyways..
 
wow...very cool. please keep us posted on what they look like
 
I think the issue against hybrids should be dropped before it touches any more nerves. Stop any more comments towards this issue please. Thanks.
