I am just curious, how many eggs laid, how many fry hatched and how many do you have now? Do you cull, or let nature take it course?
Hi BabyBlue,
I would guess the count of eggs would be in the hundreds. Maybe an 80%, hatch, but this would be based on how many eggs I saw turn white.
I do cull B/c I just don’t have enough tanks.

Do you cull based on color and defects? Or the runts?
How many do you plan to raise at a time?
Sorry for all the questions
The initial cull is based on color. If I leave the BGs in with the EBJDs, the BGs will outcompete the EBJDs and the EBJDs will wither. Thus, at the 3-4 week stage, I start to separate.
As the spawn grows, the runts are easily identified and taken out. (The ones that stay small and just look scrawnier).
I'll raise as many as my tanks and water changes allow
Keep the questions coming.

Makes sense, I’m sure I will eventually have a ton more questions! Stay tuned lolThe initial cull is based on color. If I leave the BGs in with the EBJDs, the BGs will outcompete the EBJDs and the EBJDs will wither. Thus, at the 3-4 week stage, I start to separate.
