2x weekly 50%. And I throw my vortex (rigged with Pre filter sponge, so fry don't get sucked in) once a week, clean all filters and sponges with water changes.

Is there something else I should be doing?

Thats what I would do. Hope they turn out nice man.

Just another night of cleaning the fry tank and using the diatom!!! Arrgh!!!!

THe fry are approx. 26 days old now and getting bigger as you can tell by the pics I posted.

Oh well, nobody ever said this hobby was easy!!!!!!

Oh yeah question on the diatom.....How often do you recharge your diatom? Everytime I use it, when I'm done, I take it all apart, and clean it up, dry it, and put it away.....Seems like a big waste of powder to me!!!!! Am I missing something!!!!

 

[the animal guy]

dont you want them to grow? lol

 

[cjbarth]

OF course......So i keep at it with w/c and the diatom to keep tank pristine!!

 

[the animal guy]

[cjbarth]

When I was doing W/C on atleast 2 tanks a day regardless of how excited I was about the babies the weeks can get to you sometimes, it doesnt stop you or change anything. But theres a time every now and then when that thought crosses your mind...Are they comming to take me away soon? I actually get it with feeding more often.....Just stop eating for 1 day, Just 1....but they never do..
I hear you brother....
BBF, wouldn't have it any other way!!!

Here are some of the last pics I took. Fry were all together during water change on tank bottom.

Some of these guys will be ready to go in a couple of weeks. Pearls should be showing by then!!!
