So thought I would drop in a quick update...no new pictures but there is only one fry left. Not sure what happened to the 5 or so others, must have died somehow.
So the fry hide constantly all the time, there were days where I was not even sure if there was one alive still. So I would move a few things till I saw it scurry away. Finally in the last few days it has started peeping out, last night was the fist time it actually came out for feeding. I have been feed some crushed up flake food, it is still tiny, less than 1/2" still or just at 1/2". It is looking good though, swimming around and starting to get a little more bold to come out and say hello.
I am wondering how big it should be before I can put it in the 55g without worry about the other peacocks eating it? Will they even go after it at all?
Should I be feeding crushed up pellet food over flake food? Will this make a big difference?
I am hoping to get some pics soon...
