Fry move day...

[Mugwump]

I guess that I'll have to move these little devils....only about 2wks from free swim and they're spiking out really good...some even have a bit of finage....good growth on this batch,,
(Manacapuru X pb silver ghost parents, both)

What size tank will you put them in?

[Mugwump]

Most likely the vacant 30gal, there quite a few and they're good size, I know at this pace, they'll likely not be in it long.....couple weeks??.....going down in a few to look it over again.....

I moved a bunch of fry around yesterday trying to make room for the 11 young adults I'm getting this weekend! I can't wait to see the fry from some of these. There is at least one pair that has already spawned in a community tank.

Good thing that I checked the 30gal....the heater didn't seem to be running right...replaced it and did a clean up/water change.....added the HOT Mag and left it...I'll check it later to see if temp's right ,etc...

[Jo]

[Mugwump]

LOL.....mine are much smaller......but when they've settled in..I'll give it a try....
I may have something pre move tho..??....hang on. I'll look....

[Jo]

waiting....

[Mugwump]

ok..here ya go..my pics stink...so here's a vid..as you can see, I discover each parent carried a gold...must be from the PB silver ghost parent of the pair....the fry aren't quite 2 wks free swimming

[Mugwump]

The parents came from a Manacapuru crossed to a PB silver ghost.....I've discovered from the resulting fry that the parents, also carried a gold gene each....interesting results...

Parents are both +/g +/S +/pb
