This is the largest batch of fry I've had from any pair so far. I'm excited! I expect today or tomorrow for them to start free swimming.

I could separate with a tank divider temporarily but I plan on moving the fry to else where once they start swimming.

Update :
Babies have done so much better with the different containment than the other batches. Mom and dad have laid another batch of eggs and is trying to protect both sets. Apparently they are stellar parents! lol They are even keeping the mystery snails away from the wigglers. Dad pushes them to the other side of the tank to keep them away. With the see through box on the exterior when I am feeding or cleaning they are trying to get me away from the babies. All the while protecting wigglers that are with them in the tank. I won't pull the ones with them, but I will cover the intake with a sponge and see how they do for raising themselves since I already have all of these others right now.

VIDEO (excuse the dirty bottom. I had fed a few mins before)



(chubby bellies, they love the decapsulated brine shrimp eggs now. still feeding fry starter powder as well though)

Thanks I'm excited to see how many come out with the pinoy coloration. A few are already pretty dark. Or if any develop the veil fins.

No kidding. If I could make a decent profit off of it, it would be worth it. But this is more so for fun since I can't sell them in large amounts.
