Hey All!!
I just got home from work and went to see my beloved Puffer's!! Anyway, once i'd checked my prize fish we're ok I had a quick glance into my Tropical tank (next to Puffer tank) to check that everything was OK! I was glancing around and saw this little movement! Looked up and there was a mature fry there!! The tank contains lots of fish so it's going to be exciting to see what it grows into! I posted pictures of some eggs I found about 2 weeks ago (seen below)
Anyways, everyone was in agreement that they where Cory eggs and that they would probably be eaten! The eggs vanished 3 days later and I never saw any fry so assumed that the eggs where Cory eggs and that they had been eaten! Obviously, we we're all wrong because I just found fry! (Not Cory fry!) It's quite big - if it was from them eggs them it must be about 1.5 weeks old! It's impossible to see what type of fish it is! My favourite guess is that it's a head and tail tetra fry... but it could be;
- Neon Tetra Fry
- Head + Tail Tetra Fry
- Cherry Barb Fry
- Cory Fry (it's not though!)
- Platy Fry (The platies in the tank have been in there months and both are female and it doesn't look like platie fry)
That's why i'm guessing head + tail fry!!
This is exciting, I hope it survives!! I'm treated the tank with Melafix at the moment so hopefully it won't die! I'm doing a water change now anyway so i'll look for more babies!!
EDIT - I'll give you 2/1 on Head + Tail Tetra, 5/1 on Neon's Tetra, 6/1 on Platy, 10/1 on Cherry Barb and 56/1 on Cory Fry! He he!! I'm excitied!
