I’ll make these guys their own thread since they are inside now.
On 6/19 my female gold and white ryukin spawned with my male black moor. Not a pair I’d intentionally spawn, but they took advantage of spawning material I put in the pond for the koi.
Here they are spawning
Eggs
The koi were eating all the eggs up so I brought some in. Most fungused over despite efforts to prevent it. But that was expected.
Starting 24hrs ago they started to hatch.
Here are some that hatched overnight.
Just hatched fry
I was able to count over a dozen on the back wall. I’m pretty excited, but trying to not to get my hopes up too high. Hopefully some make it, but this is an all new adventure for me. I’m just happy I didn’t kill all the eggs when moving them inside to my 75g. They have the whole tank to themselves minus the rams horn snails and one nitrite snail.
I’ll be updating and posting more pictures as they grow
