Convict?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
^_^ they are growing pretty fast, i can see eyes and they are hopping around a bit...mom looks frustrated and is digging another pit..she is now letting the male around the nest and even letting him help yay!

when they see each other in the tank they rush up and rub sides and twirl around each other?
 
You wanna grow some of them fry out and try to sort me out a dcouple like the one you have? BTW: Good looking Con
^_^ thank you .....and maybe? lol

uh these are mostly for feeders...and iv never shipped before, but if the fry come out anything like momma...i might look in to it if people want them. looks to be around 100 ish so far.

I know a LFS around here that would ship for me......so we shall see.
 
20 days old.... im thinking 200+ they are eating crushed flakes and micro worms,and parts of the bloodworms the parents get
most of them have started to darken up and get markings sorta but there is a handfull still very bright pink!

Fry are every where in the tank! the pic is only a portion of them up off the gravel
Iv bumped the water changed in the tank from 20% a week to 40-50% due to the amount of fry.
 
You have such a pretty little fish. I enjoyed seeing her babies - she looks so happy now! Thanks for taking her in and making her so happy. ^_^

thank you she is a lovely little girl ^_^

the fry are growing fast! some look like they might come out pink even, while others have dark distinctive striped all ready, and are starting to look like fish! not eyes with tails.

The male and female are both growing! the male mostly he has put on some gurth and even has a small nuptial bump^_^ he has allot more color then i first thought, a very lovely purple tail!

Ill try to get more shots of them up soon. maybe a video.

enjoy!
 
When there new babies start growing, they will attack there previous batch.
