  • Big Momma On Guard Duty

    Remember I mentioned to someone here on this thread about thinking 2 more females where holding, well I just spotted one of them spitting fry, she has spit maybe 10 so far, I'm going to go get a picture for you all. I'm so jazzed to actually see her doing that.....WOW











    Thanks for looking.

        I started with 17 from Fishcrazy1 last August, now I'm at about 25, but have given maybe 15 juvies to FishLady, and she is doing well with them. There are about a dozen fry now in with the adults.  I've lost a few to the overflow box and a few to rough treatment from the adults, I've noticed better numbers lately with more baby friendly holey rock.

          Would you ever contemplate selling any of your fry?  Just wondering because I always like those little guys that Raul had.  Do you still happen to have that 40 breeder by chance?

            Steve,

            Let me know if you are ever interested in trading some chimba fry for kachese.

            Thanks

              Hanson,

              Sorry, the 40 is gone, but on the up side, I'll be happy to provide you with some fry once their numbers are up and they have grown some. I might have some ready to leave home by August if not sooner....we'll see.

                  Thanks for your interest in them, I hope to have tons of them by the end of the summer. I believe there is two other females holding right now.

                            Yeah, I saw them...  I'm just strapped for cash right now.  If this tank doesn't sell by the weekend, it's getting converted to freshwater and I'll just go from there.  I have dealt with Willie before, he's not too too far from me actually.

                              You could always come by the house and get some of my dubousi fry too Mike. You know you want duboisi!
