Finally!!! First spawn!

[jhutch]

I finally got my wild Fredrichsthalii to pair off last week. I got 2 pairs out of 4 fish and I separated them into their own 75 and 72 bowfront tanks. The pair in the bowfront spawned today. Since the pair off today is day 2 of them being in their own tank.

That took long enough. Nice freddies! Awesome spawn by the way, what are you going to do with the F1 fry?

 

[jhutch]

Oh sell them most likely. I don't need a few hundred freddies. They are sweet fish. The 2 males tore each other up pretty good. I have 2 wild pairs. Just need to get rid of the pair of Borleyi and an OB peacock that is in with the other pair so they will spawn also.

Nice pickup! I'm a fan of Freddies..... need to get me some. Where did you get yours from?

nice, I usually don't like freddies but your pair is pretty nice.

I got them from one of my suppliers. The pics aren't really good enough. They have nicer coloration in person. There is a nice blue on the edge of the fins. I wasn't really a fan either til I decided to get them. Had never heard of them or seen one til they came in the mail a few months ago. Once I realized they had a few nice looking teeth I was hooked.
