babies!

[longhorn13]

i just got a new digital camera today and i was playing around with it trying to get a pic of one of my female caucs and i saw what i thought was food or something floating right above the gravel. i looked closer, and i saw babies! i had no idea anything was going on. it's hard to tell how many, but i can say at least 20. they are in a 33G long with two cauc pairs, a couple juvie swordtails, a siamensis and a rubbernose pleco. i'll probably do some rearraning tomorrow and move the bristlenose fry to the 20g long and the cauc fry to the 10.

what do i feed them? bbs? crushed flakes?

are they still wrigglers or free swimming?

because if theyre still wrigglers(they look like little worms vibrating) they will eat the rest of their egg.untill free swimming(which will take 2-4 days)but if they are free swimming crushed flakes and BBs will work fine

btw congrats
