  • Tale of a happy couple!

    Since I left the last clutch of leulepi with their parents, there are about 10 survivors that made it to 1". I moved them out last week at water change to free up the LOVE nest.

      They didn't waste any time. Momma can be seen inside the cave to guard the new eggs.

        She is having a really big clutch this time due to long time break.

          The eggs have become wigglers at the moment. They will be moved out to their own grow out tank next week.

          Proud momma!

              They have given me over 20 clutches during the last 3 years. Over 1500 fry!

                    How long do you leave the fry in the net breeder? I took fry from my Leleupi's last brood and put them in a 36g. Now the female is in the cave again. I'm thinking maybe they should have the 36g.

                      After they become free swimming (about 1 week after hatched), I move them to the grow out tank. No breeder net. I let momma takes care of the fry for about weeks total since she lays eggs.

                        You should give them the 36 gallon. I have them in the 30 gallon.
