yeah, i'm thinking of it. i'd rather a smaller species of badis, such as the scarlet, but if he doesn't have it... burmanicus it is!

heh, i've a lot more to say, but i'm taking this waaaay off-topic. pm sent.

wwooowwww...

Sad to say, but as I expected, things are not going very well thus far There were only about 20 eggs and many have fungus. Oh well, maybe a few will survive, but if not, I still have a healthy pair of goos

 

[onemisterchristian]

aww...dissapoinment. Sorry about that. Good luck next time?

 

[Dwarfs]

Yeah, we may try to get some kind of med to prevent the fungus next time

 

[onemisterchristian]

Isn't it common for the first clutch to be infertile, thereby resulting in fungus?

He's just a lazy Dad , some of them are still good , have eyes

^ The female decided to lay her eggs on the top of the inside of the tube, and the male doesn't like to hover upside down

My original male has mysteriously died shortly after being replaced by a more active male, but I'm hoping the new guy will take better care of his eggs when he spawns

 

[Dwarfs]

You know those eggs that had fungus on them? Well I moved the pipe containing them into a five gallon last week and the eggs dissapeared a few days ago. Last night lucky saw two fry Even better, today he saw five! Now I just need to keep these guys alive and get my pair to spawn

Yes indeed, more congratulations are due! By the way, how long did yours have to grow out before they bred? 2 months?
