  • My first petro fry

    Dropped in 4 chopped shrimp in the mini lake a little while ago and the female Macro that I suspected was holding spat out 5 fry right before taking a big gulp of shrimp. By the time I came back with a net, I could only find 3 fry left. The other 2 might have been eaten by the hungry mob going after the morning feast but I will keep looking for them over the next few days.

    These are from the Macro that Gene D gave me and not from the Macro Dine female.

        The puny male from Gene got it done with one of the non-Dine macros. I need you to come look at that male. Might be green macro just like yours.

          Why the phuck are they getting mixed up?!

          Does gene's male have yellow like mine?

          Or more green? I recall a greener color but he wasn't in breeding condition yet?

                        His colors have improved since I've had him. I need you to check him out in person to determine what's up
