fry

So, I have heard many people here say they use 2.5 or 5 gallon tanks as hospital / fry tanks so I have a couple of questions. When is a fish too far gone to bring back to health? How are you filtering these small tanks? Obviously a aquaclear from a 55 will be too big to move, so how are you...

i have a few red x gold tigermotaguense and was looking for some good gut loading food source suggestions

The other night I had shifted the Najas mass to one side to see how the java moss in the 20 high was growing and spotted an odd movement on the sand. Looking closer, I was pleasantly surprised to find a wee Sewellia among the cherry shrimp. I suspect there would be more, but the LDA-08's have...

i just recently picked up a trio of ABN, the male being a longfin ABN and the 2 females being regular ABNs. about a week ago i no longer seen the male and looked in the breeding log that i have in the tank and found him tending to eggs. well today i spotted 2 fry out of the log sucking on the...

We have a plagued 5 gallon tank. Story follows, but main question is the following: After stripping a combo of fry and eggs, all the fry have died. Don't know why (more on that below). We moved the eggs to the display tank where we knew the water would be safe (did not move any water to avoid...

How long does it typical from hatching to the fry leaving the cave? I have a male who has been in the same hole for over a week.I saw eggs and hatched fry, but I haven't seen him leave the hole to be able to investigate their progress. Should I try to get the fry out? The temp is in the...

I noticed free swimming Strawberry apisto fry this morning. I am going out of town next week, so there is a good chance they won't make it. However it is encouraging to have them spawn.

Like the title says.... please post all fry pictures in the BAP participant forum. This helps me keep track of the first check. I started to do some of them but there are too many.... if you have more fry pictures please post them in that section under your name. If you posted them in this...

Started to realize that I'm getting a bunch of fry... Ps. demasoni (spit 2/12/10) - only 5 of the little guys; luckily, have another female about to spit. First spawn for me for the species. Ps. Acei - White-tail F1 (spit 3/7/10) - Wild caught parents. About 30 or so of the little...

I have three Nimbochromis venustus in my 180 gallon tank - two males and one female. I've raised the large male from about 1.5" for about 6 years. He sports a lot of color all the time, but despite his age, is only about 8" long. I believe that this is because he was a bit stunted early on...

hatched 3 days ago, mama did her fry parade yesterday but would'nt let me get shots until today

I have angel fry. I had a silver female and a dd black male spawn. I pulled the eggs and put them in a 2.5g with a sponge filter, heater and some java moss. They have been eating bbs. Susan

My red lizards are spawning now, and if they're like the BN will likely keep going for quite a while. I tried hatching the first few eggs in a net breeder. It worked, but the fry disappeared after a few days, presumably died and were eaten by the ramshorn snails. Here are some pics of the 2nd...

For those of you who use fry baskets, I thought I should share with you this really cool basket I picked up from Tropical Lagoon last week. I prefer DIY baskets but I really wasn't in the mood to go out and get the materials. I was in desperate need of some fry baskets so I spent the money and...
