Congrats on the new arrivals!

Congratualtions!

Are the adults in the 45 gallon tank? I have some in an 8 gallon and so far all I've seen is lots of mating rituals and later fish going mental in the java moss, hunting for eggs.

Congrats! It must be such a good feeling to see the little guys swimming around!

I've got a grope of 10 I'm fattening up and gonna breed soon.

Friend with 3 pairs in the last month has has 15 fry now, they seam to produce 2-5 fry every week, so these seam to be a strange fish producing very few eggs but the fry are being reared with the adults and no problems, were using micro eel's as a first food and then brine shrimp.

fry that are 4-5 weeks are still only 8mm but look like nice small fish

nope there are 12 in a 14 uk gallon tank

when the fry get a bit bigger i will be swapping them (hopefully) to re breed as tank breed adults

then wheni have enough i will be putting them into the 45 planted tank

thanks for the comments
