Wild Festae spawned again VIDs

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I am going to pull them tonight and split them up into two 10g.
 
Moved the fry in the dark last night. I have them split into two tanks now. Both bottoms are painted black...one tank was a tank I just drained and had some algae all over the bottom and sides...one was a clean tank. It seems the clean glass in the one is messing with the fry making them not feel safe or able to swim freely. They seem to be getting better since I took the vid but still not like the other tank. The other tank has a nice cloud moving about the tank.

once these grow out I plan to try my hand at shipping...I have a list of people that want me to send them some...I never shipped but I am going to give it a try. So if you want to pay shipping I am selling...just send me a PM and I keep track of it that way.

Thanks...I am pretty excited about this spawn...the most I have saved so far in the past was 25-30 to sell-able size and those get sopped up fast by local people. This time I would love to be able to have a couple hundred:nilly:
 
So one 10gal of the grow outs is doing great...the other one might have had more fry in it and has major aggression. One tank all the fins on the fish are perfect...in the other all the fins are nipped. Some so bad that even the side fins are nubs...causing them to use to much energy to swim and then dye. I am about to move them to bigger tanks. I have to make room in these 10gal's becasue I have another batch of eggs :headbang2...1.5 months for them to spawn again. This time I will try 4 10gal tanks.


View these full size so you can really see the tails.
