[minnnt]

What would you be putting them in with? The fry are currently around 1/2 -3/4 of an inch.

1. Honduran Red Point
2. Jade Eyed Cichlid
3. Jade Eyed Cichlid
4. Anomalochromis Thomasi
5. Pitbull Plec
6. Columbian Red Fin Tetra
7. L001 Plec
8. Angel fish
9. Thorichthys Ellioti
10. 'Strawberries and Cream' Mickey Mouse Platy
11. Thorichthys Ellioti

The Plec is a L001. Unsure if it has a common name.

As for the pictures, these are the best of about 100 i took. The camera is absolutely awful. Looking into getting something better sorted, but blimey they're expensive!

Also known as the Gold/Yellow spot plec

Thanks Matt. I don't see them causing any particular problems with your setup, especially as it is (i'm assuming!) a 300 litre tank that they're going into.

I'm thinking of 50p each when they're big enough (probably another couple of weeks) but postage is about £9 or £10 i think... Unless you fancy a trip to Nottinghamshire?! lol.

Haha, er, with petrol prices as they are, think Id be better of cycling LOL, Probably cost me £20 each way!

Tank is 300 litres 48x18x24.

I just hope they wouldnt be stunted etc as im not gonna perform daily water changes or even twice weekly ones. I only do it every 2 weeks as is! I suppose I could up it to once a week.

 

[minnnt]

I think weekly water chages would be fine mate. They're proper little fish mate, not just some tiny little dot. Will try and get a picture for you. Also have a spare Ellioti Juvi thats about an inch and a half...

 

[KkAaNnEe]

Sounds good mate, let me know...

 

[minnnt]

Just been upstairs with the camera and there is no chance of a picture. They're like lightening as they think it's feeding time

If you're interested then we can sort something out...

here is a similar pic to what they look like

 

[KkAaNnEe]

Yeah, Im interest for sure. What growth rate would you expect and do you reckon I should take 4 or so, as fry are delicate, wouldnt wanna lose 2 then have to get more posted, I can always pass them on if they all survived

 

[minnnt]

Completely up to you mate. I see your point! lol. You let me know what you want and i will sort you a price out. There are probably 6-8 bigger ones which would probably be safe in your tank now, but it's up to you...

 

[KkAaNnEe]

Yeah mate, the 4 + ellioti juvi, is that a descendant of the infamous ellioti we've all seen? lol

Erm, no not quite. Possibly a close relative. I think he is their uncle These came from Littlemonkey and she had her originals from Star4. It's all very complicated. lol. haha.

Will source some bag buddies for the journey too and look into postage then let you know a price etc. Will pick the 4 biggest HRP's for you too.

Growth rate is dependant on water conditions and food etc. They're feeding on Tetra Prima about 3 or 4 times a day at the moment. They will grow like crazy in the sized tank you have!

 

[KkAaNnEe]

Ok, ive got some unbranded prima pellets laying about so will feed them that, just send me a pm...

 

[markandhisfish]

love the hrp's . they remind me of convicts only nicer
