    Well,

    Im working on week 4 for my batch of Neolamprologus Brichardi. About 60 of the original 90+ have survived to this point. And I just got back from an overnighter out of town, and to my surprize, have approx. 90 more. Seriously, I now have a good 150 fry in the tank. Im not use what to do at this point. I dont have enough room for them all and dont know if the first batch will be ready to rehome anytime soon. Any advice?

    Proud papa of a baby oto

    My first attempts. Still working the camera.

    First pic, little one is above the 16 on the ruler.


    Second pic, he's at the 13 1/2 mark.


    If you look closely, you can see the black dots for the eys. He has the cutest little fins too. Heading back down to play with the camera again.

    Very rare in the home aquarium. Extremely excited. Funny thing...I wasn't even trying to breed them. They just live there happily with their invert friends.

    I've been raising a batch of convict fry since march 29th. Some it seems have "mysteriously disappeared" so only about 15 or so left. I haven't seen much growth in them as I had expected.

    I bought a packet of Hikari First Bites and only got 1 feeding out of it when the next day I realized that my bengal kitten tore the bag open and ate the whole packet! $4.00 = in the toilet.

    So, I've got to get more. I am going to try to move them and the parents along with the other tank mates into their new tank to make room for Discus in their old tank. Hopefully the fry make it. :confused:

    I've never traded anything to a pet store for credit, can someone tell me how it works and a place that may take convicts?

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

    tmt just ask your local fish store if they take younger convicts. If they dont you can always sell them on aquabid or whatever site you want to use that it is legal on :)

    Second. I dont know how big the fry are but it might be risky to put them in But you'll have to ask the others about that :)

    I have so many guppies and mollies that I haven't a clue what to do with them all. I've started putting ad's on craigslist for people to take them so the ammonia level in my tank doesn't go insane.
