sorry freakdaddy stole your bshrimp glory



Hey no worries mate, glad you found it a handy tip.:D

Congrats Dixon!:headbang2

Within the next week they will be all over the tank that's when you'll loose them to the other fish if the parents haven't killed them first.:(

Still look on the bright side you can be damned sure they are gonna have another batch soon:naughty:
 
you got the wrigglers feeding yet?

wow at £10 each they should fly out , there at breeding age . you simply do not find breeding age pulchra in shops and when you do they are still pretty expensive. there is many young around but most bought in a shop would take 1.5 years to get to the size of yours.

have you tried seeing if tropical team would take them in considering the size , if not i would of though mark down at paddock would give at least £10 each as he would be able to retail them at £25 easy.

good luck with the fry mate , to be honest the parents probably wont let the other get near the fry so theres a good chance they will still be ok.

cheers col

i'm sorted and will have a tank set up for them tomorrow. so i'll wait and get them fully healed and then sell them.

we'll i started too feed them crushed pellet until my food order arrives but i have no clue if they are eating it or even if they are able to eat or need to eat yet.
 
you should notice if they have an egg sack from there stomach, if you dont seem to notice one then from there on there so hungry it's litterally insationable, finely crushed pellet's into a powder form' worked fine with mine
 
Congrats! That was faster than I could have imagined you could do it, but I knew you would do it.
 
love little babies as a surprise... great and congradulations...... cannot wait to them in pics

Try a magnifying glass, or focusing on a rock extremely close, then just snap the pic when the fry goes by.



However, I see the fry in every pic.
 
I say weekly updates is needed.

Congrats on the little youngins.
