Congrats are in order But your the first?????? I don't think so.I spawned and raised many fry over 20 years ago. My female ornate died last year after 32 years.......In answer to the question What to do. I had good luck raising the fry in bare bottom tanks feeding micoworms as a first food.Do not keep them to crowded as they will try to eat each other when very small.

Great! Someone with experiense! How did you have your breeding pair? Alone or with others? I have tested to have them alone, but they didn't like it. Did you have any anti-fungel in the water?
