ENOUGH ALREADY......for now anyway

 Started out innocent enough..........get a couple pairs and EASE back into things with 10 or so tanks.

Just 2 weeks in, Of the adult and just turned adult sized fish I picked up to get things started here, I SOMEHOW wound up with 8 pairs......2 spawns in 2 1/2 gal tanks I pulled last week that are now free swimming and eating BS like champs.....one spawn with mom and dad that should be off the slate tomorrow.......and 5 MORE spawns laid over THIS weekend.

Im not sure I ever had 5 pairs all pop on a single weekend so I took a kinda crappy video of the parents..... ALL dutifully watching over their eggs and wigglers........so far.



Meanwhile those initial 10 tanks have multiplied themselves, and are now at 22 set up and cycling and or up and running....and around 900 gallons :o :o :o

Been a BUSY and EXHAUSTING 2 weeks of thrashing and TRYING to keep up with the fishes.

Too Many Fish. Not Enough Tanks.

 Thanks for the compliments on the setup....almost done.  The setup is version 2.25....When I do finish it all up Ill share a bit more of it and the "mechanics" of it all if anyones interested. The grow out tanks will have a drip feed/filtration system again, that I think I ironed all the wrinkles out of in Setup version 2.01 ;-)

Some of my fish ARE real lookers...but alas, I Cant take credit for the fish I recently purchased.
If nothing else, they have certainly proved fertile and I now know for sure who is male or female and will soon have a better idea of THEIR makeup, to move forward.

I'd be interested in that drip system, Ed....My layout is not perfect for one...but I think with a good drill...LOL...I could make it work in one area...then move things around to tweak that zone....
