    will do!! I didnt' get any survivors the first time this happened. :(
    I came home and noticed I had eggs. next morning they had ate most of them, [boxing] didn't do that the first time. :confused:
    so i got them all out of the tank and into my other tank.
    I still counted about 150 eggs on the bottom [dancing] . so I guess we'll see in a couple days what happens!! don't know what i'm gonna do with all of em though. :confused:

    you can always list them for local pickup, maybe a lfs would be interested in them for the ones you can't keep?

    congrats on the eggs...if you get more fry than you want/handle, could you use them as feeders to your older ones ?

    although piranhas are canabioistic they wouldn't eat them, they only get like that if they havne't been feed in a long time and have no choice or if two get in a fight and one gets injured badly..
    my adults are to big to even mess with them... they actually dont even bother with smaller fish, but if i put a 2 foot catfish in there its gone in matter of seconds. I'll figure something out... Give em away if i have too lol

    i'll be in the same situation as your are if i end up with a breeding pair of oscars. there's one lfs that won't take fish in unless your a certified breeder, but there's another that will take in a few.

    While cleaning the 90g I come to find 2 (probably more in the tank) Ameca Splendens that were the size of a baby molly. Who knows how long they were even in there!

    I wouldn't have a clue other than say maybe aquabid or ebay ...or even on the forum here if you "can't" sell them locally?

    Re: Fry Announcement Board (Announce your Baby Fry Here)

    Woo Hoo...Just checking the pleco breeding logs with my handy dandy flashlight and found mom fanning a batch of eggs in the top log!
    Yet again, ALL the eggs look good.
    *Beginning to wonder where I will stick them all*

    Once the plants go in the 90g the corydoras are big enough to move out of the 10g and so are several of the gupster fry so that should help a touch.

    -->Punk...then try selling online (here, ebay, aquabid)
