Couple Marble vid updates

[vamptrev]

i would think about seperating the female that was getting picked on. she looked pretty tore up and stressed

i usually just seperate for about 2 or 3 weeks to give the girl a rest

Do I seperate the female OR do I just pull the 2 males?

I feel like I'm playin Jenga here.... My 2 CB keepers are still tormenting "the mutt" and the Jag in the pup tank.

In the juvie tank (1st vid) the male not in the vid has put a few bite marks on the best looking 2 ladies in that tank. The male in the vid is relentless. Biting my 2 prized ladies won't be tolerated until they are bigger.

IF I pull both males and put them downstairs I could move the CB keepers over from the pup tank. Maybe pull the female that just gave birth and pen her up with one or both of those males. She keeps trying to get that dark males attention but it seems all that is on his mind is the blonde.

I've seen momma rays get pretty violent. Not sure how well these smaller rays would do in the 750. We're talking rays almost 3 times bigger. Maybe throw the divider in the 750 for them.

Sound like a plan?

Kinda new to actually having to move rays around. Luckily I was smart enough to put all tanks in my place on a drip so water is basically the same in all the tanks.

Congrats Al, hope all goes well. The one in background in 1st vid @ the 1:51 mark looks really nice. And I agree you can't rate a marble until it reaches a large size. My pair were pretty much average @ 5" but have gotten much nicer as they have matured and are at 11 inches now and never looked better. Will see how they go as they get even larger.
Can't wait till the deed is done here.

Where again did yours come from?

The one at 1:51 is definetly nice. Very light based for as bold as the Marbling is. Personally I like the one that pops out from under around 109 best. Her Marbling is just out of this world.

Sure seems like it takes forever. I've had the male that's tuggin in the 1st vid for a couple years now. He was mature when he arrived.

I got mine from Alex formerly Fish Room Plus in middle of Oct of 09, both 5". I put their age roughly @ 20 months or so. My male is fully mature now not sure of the female yet. I did notice a few nibbles around her disk though lately.

Ha, I totally missed her pop out from under the pile. She is definitely sweet.

Feel sorry for the first female, looks like the male is confused on which way to go when trying to flip. He will figure it out before long. Can't wait to see the new pups.

Alex also brought in the dark male in the video.... Bet it hasn't put on 2 inches since I got him.

Some day I'll get a buddy to drop by with a real camera so hopefully he can portray what these things really look like. Everyone knows it's hard to get shots that actually capture a Marbles beauty.
