pretty exciting. based on their white color the eggs look unfertilized to me. but it's always good to know you have a female.

Eggs have hatched. This is somewhere between 72-96hrs after the eggs were laid.

Fry are free swimming now. Move went good. Saved most the fry. Water PH at new house is 7.8. Old place was about 7. We'll see how this goes.

Thanks!
I still have 3 fry left from my last batch if you're still up for them. I have to warn you that these will probably be the nastiest boogers you'll ever see.

Wow!  :shock: That is awesome!

Thanks Betty! They are a very rare west african treat! To my knowledge, I am the only person on the inet with these guys and babies... With video's anyways.

SNIP I still have 3 fry left from my last batch.

3 left? I hope thats from selling donating the rest? If they are spawning on such a massive level I would think you would have more than 3 survivors out of what appears to be hundreds.
