You have a lot of fry. What are you going to do with them??? Congrats on all the spawns though.
 
WOW !!!! that is a crap load of fry ... Good luck getting rid of all those unless you're planning on using them as feeders..
 
well my plan is to sell them at 3/4 inch and ship them ground. i am going to give it a shot and sell 35 for 20.00 and ship ground so shipping should be like 10 or 15 bucks. if not ive got a 75 and 90 gallon and im going to raise them to 2-3 inches and try to sell 3 and 4 at a time as well as take thme in for store credit at lfs. if anyone is interested in the 3/4 inch deal then pm me because they will be ready in 3 weeks to a month. convicts will be ready in 1 or 2 weeks to do the 35 fish for 20.00. thats my plan anyway. allways worth trying it once
 
Unless you're really close to the buyer, they're not going to survive ground shipping.

oh yes it will. shipped jewels like that before. fish that small can make it 3 days and even 4.
 
It looks sort of like a cloud of frozen brine shrimp when they are first dumped in the water. Thats a lot of fry!

Do you add anything to the shipping water to reduce stress?

I know that most fish are bagged for 24-36 hours prior to arrival at fish stores, but three to four days! :eek:

Well, if it worked for you in the past, go for it.
