I'm glad they're still swimming about!

Babies are looking good! And the parents are lovely! Can't wait to see the babies when they're all grown up!

Its really good to see the fry swimming about, you look to have lots too. Cant wait to see them grow and colour up...congrats

cheers for all the well wishes folks.....

i cant believe i have got this many this far tbh.there is around 40.BUT they seem to be 2 different sizes either big or smaller.im going to give it another week and split them i think.

decided not to split them as they are all a decent size now.kept feeding BBS for the smaller ones.fully on MW now.grindal worms next and frozen daphnia some will take it grated already.
i will get a vid and some pics up soon wen i have time.

finally had chance to get a vid of them up.really taking shape now,no losses at all really happy with the numbers of this spawn..enjoy

p.s sorry but my camera is rubbish.

You have loads all looking quite a good size for 4 weeks old, well done looking forward to more updates

the fry are @6 weeks 2moz.today i upped the water level to give them more space added a home made filter also.2 more large ish apple snails to clean the un wanted food.i have some really good IAL just arrived this is why the water is dark in the vid.cleaning the bottom daily hoover mode lol and doing 25% water changes.the water changes are alot quicker now they are bigger,as i add the aged water with a measuring jug not a small pipe.feeding very well on smashed up frozen BS live daphina and the odd lot of GW.really happy with this lot my work has paid off not over yet though!!!

Looking good Wayne

Looking really nice Not long to go now till they colour up fully.

They look good to my inexperienced(not taking away from you) eyes. Looking forward to their colours.

i think there a little small for their age?

Yours look good, the colours seem to be developing nicely. I've just had a hint of colour in the fins of my lot and I think they are the same age. There seems to be a bit of a growth spurt for some of mine just the last 3 to 4 days. They are mainly on decaps now.
