NICE PICS MAN! Looks great. What are you running for a filter system in the tank with the fry and do you have any substrate? I had a friend of mine give me an old 20 gallon high tank this weekend that I may use once they are ready to start spawning. I would prefer to have a 29 but we'll see. My sals are only about 2" still so they have a little time before they are ready. I have a couple little 5 gallons and a 10 I picked up that I can use for the fry eventually to grow out a bit. Sorry about your losses but congrats on all the babies gained!
The tank is a 30 gallon, it has a HOB Marineland Emperor Bio-Wheel 280 with polly wool, ceramic media and 11.74 oz chemi-pure elite. I painted the sides, bottom and back black, i don't really like the bare look but for a breeder its alot easier to keep clean.
