Houston, we have liftoff

I found a beautiful Festae surprise this morning. I'm kind of disappointed how few eggs there are though. Let's see if she knows what to do with them now. i.e-that they're not dinner.

Oh wow!!!! That is soo exciting! If you can produce fry, what are you going to do with them?

I'll sell as many as I can to individuals. I've had several PM's from people around Texas as far away as 300 miles who will come up and take them off my hands. Plus there's 3 lfs' here in town that buy them from me for $5 each when they hit an inch. And Modest Man might walk me through a shipping lesson if I feel up to it.

Yeah and the last time I bred Festae the female ate the first couple of batches.

Congrats! That is a nice looking female.

Thanks.

Actually I don't have my hopes up too high for this batch but we'll see.

That's her alright. See the scar on her side?

Damn straight I'll walk you through shipping (just so I get some). Shipping out 1" fish is the easiest in the world. You can two day USPS priority them no problem for about $20 most anywhere in the US once it warms up a bit.
