BSP confirmed male.

Hope he does what he's suppose to do as well.

Right now I've got him strategically housed in between 2 tanks. Each of the tanks has 1 female. Doing this to introduce him to a couple females without being with them in the tank. So hopefully he can start to pick a female while still in quarantine. Will it work? IDK . We'll see. Hoping to decrease introduction time and/or fighting when I finally put them in same tank.

Anyone tried this before?

...sounds good.....

Sounds like a good Idea to me.  But I thought the female did the choosing.  My males will pretty much accept any female that is willing to spawn.

..yes, they normally do....and now that both females will get a good look at him.....one might show more interest than the other  .....

[Babers]

I'll see what happens. If one female is more interested and he's also behaving positively to her....I'll pick that pair.

We'll see....

Did a preliminary count on the Blue Silver het (pb/pb,+/bg)/BSP (D/g,pb/pb,bg/bg) spawn today when I moved them to another tank
Pinoys - 50
Blue Silver - 77
Seal Points - 50
Platinums - 52
Count is preliminary because They are too small to tell the difference between a Lace Pinoy (D/+) and a Hybrid Pinoy (D/g), or the difference between single and double dose Platinums.  I never have figured out how to tell the difference between the single and double dose Blue Silvers.

That a good size spawn you have there. How big are they now? Great job!

[Mugwump]

...very nice Dale..

Yeah more there than I thought there were.  They are just a little over dime size right now. Left them in a 10 gal too long and they haven't grown as fast as they should. Split them and moved them now so they should be OK.  Now all I have to do is to figure out what I am going to do with them all.
