Taking The Leap

[PaulineMi]

Sorry they ate the eggs again. Just give them more time. They will get it together.

Thanks Willie. They will show me what they're capable of these next couple of go arounds. Noticing that they're a tad skittish I moved the slate to the opposite end of the tank, put a fake plant in the center of the tank and put one of Barb's cones where the slate was. I'm trusting they'll feel more secure with this set up. Today I will do a big water change now that I've gotten the TDS down for them. After this they're on their own. 

The ones I have did very well in an isolated corner of the house. Mine are very skittish too. I may set them up again once I get my Kois going good.

Scott moved his as well....

The tank they're in is pretty much out of the way, dimly lit and covered on three sides. It was bare except for the slate and sponge filter. Since they had been in a tank with driftwood and plants I added the "extras" last night hoping to make them a bit more comfortable.

We were gone all day. Just got home and discovered a slate full of eggs...again. They sure are prolific. Now to see if they have this raising a family thing figured out yet.

Cool.....sooner or later, they'll get it....
