fry

All. Gauging interest if anyone is looking for a group of Tropheus. These are WC Tropheus sp. Red "Kiku" Locale. There are 19 Adults. Approx 7m/12f. Females have held but never full term and I did not want to strip them. There are not a lot, if any, that have this fish in the US. Anyhow...

So out of six holding females in my ruby red peacock tank (thank you Tony) I appear to have a single solitary surviving fry. But he is the bomb!! He has managed to hide among the three rock piles for at least two weeks now, dodging petricola and hungry peacocks, and dashing around to get enough...

It might have just been overlooked by me, but the buescheri actually make pretty good parents. They are keeping the fry safe. They only lay a few eggs at a time but there are several generations living together. Some of the fry are so small you can't see them on the video. The squabbling...

Shot a few quick videos to test out a new camera. w6mKFU8MuXM

I noticed two of my fish got fungus/tail rot, another just died out of the blue. I have no idea how you would go about treating them if they are impossible to catch. No way I will remove all the rocks and such and stress everyone else while trying to catch one fast sick fish. There's nearly no...

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...

Just curious how actively very small BN plecos will hunt down fry. I'm thinking one of my ruby reds may spit soon and I may be tempted to rescue some fry. The only other tank for them would have 8 small BN plecos.

pseudotropheus socolofi and nimbochromis venustus $2ea These are mature fry. About 8-10 months growing out.

1" Featae fry hatched May 20ish. Healthly and hungry. Dad is wild caught and will be in Fish show at ACA. Delivery to ACA or pick-up in Maryland. $5ea. Parents courting last fall 6-3ILx5tmm4

I have about a dozen demasoni fry, about an inch long, that I am happy to sell if someone wants them. Can bring to June meeting or pickup in Reston VA. Drop me a PM if interested.

Ok, so I've got a few batches of Melanochromis cyaneorhabdos (Maingano) fry that I've been raising and they've been developing a variety of color intensities. How do I judge what's "good" color on these guys? I noticed that one female produces much darker colored fry than the other female, but...

Love these guys. Have a group of 4 males and I think 16 females, so expecting that once they get going I should have a lot of fry. Pulled the first 4 tonight. Very psyched about it. Hooray for me! :D:blush::D:blush:

Beauty in motion even at a small size. I have a grow out tank with these now 1/2 inch fry. This is the "Yellow Head". Here's daddy. Hard to believe they start out like this. Zooming in on a pellet that got stuck in the grass (plastic). Sometimes I will drop in one or two small pellets...

Sorry about the repost, I made a better video than the one I posted last night. I've been trying to get these guys to spawn since June 2010. uL_LdhSwXBw

This was my first attempt at breeding Microgeophagus ramerezi (German Rams). Video http://s933.photobucket.com/albums/ad174/bschuhart/?action=view&current=GermanRamswithfry4-19-11.mp4

On March 13th, my L. Ornatipinnis pair had their first spawn. The female was eating the fry unfortunately. I was able to pull 5 of the fry out into a breeder net. Now on April 13th, my L. Ornatipinnis pair had their second spawn. This time I pulled 21 fry from the pair's tank into yet another...

Have had about 9 or so yellow lab fry growing in a 20g tank for almost a month now. They are healthy and active. If anyone is interested let me know. $2 per lab.

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.
