..a couple whities on the edge that he missed, but a real nice spawn.... ;D ;D ;D...that's a bunch ;D

That is a bunch.  Sorry you're having to pull them, but it doesn't bother you as much as it bothers me.  You should get a huge multitude of kids ;D
Always move forward. Never look back.

I'd much rather have them raise, but while they're on their 'learner's permit' ...I'll drive this one  ;D
They can have the next few....there are angel pairs that never raise....these two, coming from parent raisers have a better chance

It shouldn't bother you at all really......they have had their chances, and they'll get more... ;D  the cycle is just getting interrupted.... 8)

Real nice spawn Jon.  Good luck with them.

Too Many Fish. Not Enough Tanks.

Beautiful pair and great spawn! Good luck

Mugwump

Still very few 'whities', maybe a dozen??...about half the spawn has fallen below now...this is the sign of movement before they hatch, and then tails pop out, and the wiggling begins... ;D
They should be full fledged wigglers by late afternoon, early evening....then I'll poof the remainder off the slate, and clean up any of the 'whities' that I can... ;D
I believe that I'll raise these in low/med light. Doing this enhances darker barring in striped angels, I'm of a belief that it will also help produce a better turning of the HB expression, plus perhaps make them darker and more vivid..?? Liz has done a great job with hers, so the expressive genes should be working well with these too.

We have wigglers... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D.....as stated, I'll poof the rest off the slate here shortly....

When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because those weirdos are your tribe.  (Sweatpants & Coffee)

 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D  Grow 'em strong like a bull and then lay down the law to their parents.  Tell them that if they don't raise their next spawn you will replace them with a pair of their kids.

I haven't pulled  the cone from my recalcitrant pair yet.  I have the multitudes who I just moved to a 60 and would be in a 100 if I had one available.  The parents of the multitudes have just presented with another batch of free swimming multitudes.  I have all these fry from the 2 veils that have to become at least dime size before I can ship them.

Everybody has been switched to tap water.  I need no more fry right now.
Always move forward. Never look back.
