well there almost freeswimming! mom moved them to the other side of the dec ( she layed the eggs in the decoration i had in there and now she moved them to the other side of it )
oh i know some will get sucked up buut there at the far end of the tank from the filter ( and i dont have a sponge filter to put on there yet ) but wow there has to be more then i though in there! there has to be atleast 150. and im moving in 2 weeks so i been kinda neglicting on the tank maintance ( sry! ) trying to find a place before sept. anyways the mom had to have took in the pink female wigglers on account of how much there is right now! been day 3 so far and some are trying to take off, anyways ill update later ( cant use my internet at granny cause my aunt put a password on it now but ill tell why in my other thread )
OMG i just saw a lil swordtail fry swimming with the big boys in the tank! had to be atleast an inch of not smaller!
well 5 days old and none are swimming yet.... unless the mom hides them when im around or whatever.
well theres a crap ton swimming in front of there home ( where there eggs were layed and hatched ) got a vid of it but will upload later
here are some pics ( kinda squint your eyes and you can see the frys by the green plant and by there home area which is the lil castle thingy ) and my pair
I have con fry now. I put lace pantyhose over the filter I tied it with an elastic. You might want to consider something like that. They can easily get sucked up. Congrats on the babies.
