...so close to raising.......but haven't got the fry moving down yet....just a bit clumsy.....LOL
..I'll pull the next one...then they can practice some more... ;)
Are the blue glitters from your stock,or did you buy them.
How many do you have?
I got four from Frank...got lucky and have two pairs. |^|
Pair #2 spawned....and I yanked it....we'll see how good their 1st spawn goes... huh
..also, yanked a huge spawn from the 'het' blue marbles......couldn't pass that one up |^| :) |^|...they've blown the last bunch of spawns....idiots.... wfwf
..everything looks good with the spawns that I pulled.... |^|.....fingers crossed.... ;)
..looked in on the eggs a bit ago.......still looking good....... :) :) :) |^| |^| |^| :) :) :)
...wigglers and the start of some vines |^|

Albinos ?....never had a spawn raised from these blue glitter pairs...... huh
..the 'het' blue marble spawn is going to be huge !!!!....by far the biggest yet from this pair..... ;)

...LOL...me too...we'll see...I'm raising them in the dark now, just in case... huh
..both spawns progressing right along.....the 'het' blue marbles are wiggling so hard that they're shaking the tank....LOL
..the blue glitters are looking good for a first spawn....not as many tho as the 'het's....
That's great news. Congrats.
How are the blue glitters doing,do you have a ton of them.
I would like to get some,assuming I have the cash when they are ready.

I need to pull another spawn....the first was small, and didn't do well.....they've been 'almost' raising.....but the 'learners permit' period is over....
How big would you need them ?
Any size would work,but prefer the budget size. ;D
I saw you mention Speedee delivery before,sounds like a good option for me,if possible.

..yup....great local outfit....and a thrifty ship
One of Frank's blue glitters I saw on facebook.
Mine are likely offspring from that pair..... huh
I love glitters and snakeskins,but from what I read it takes a while to develop,so unless you are planning to growing out a ton of them you may be letting go of some of your best fish.
Some of Ken's were awesome,and I have been checking out some of Steffen Rothe's fish on facebook,what he has done with glitter and OTHER traits is amazing.
The overage on this one in fantastic.
..on my bunch, they started showing up at near 1/2 dollar sized.....one earlier than that.....and yup, it continues to express better as they mature.... |^|
A couple years back, the snakeskin came out....whatever happen to those?

..they're still out there.....most folks just don't recognize it....and the 'hype' had waned.... huh
First time I heard of them was when Carol and a guy got some Platinum marbles with the trait.
Carol worked with snakeskins for years,and I assume still does.
I wanted to get some for a long time,but either had other projects going or didn't have the money for the stock.
She eventually went to breeding almost all veils,which I don't like in general.
She also breeds a lot of Paraibas,which the trait won't show well on.
Maybe I will contact her and see if she ever has any standard juvies available.
Blue glitter....can't quite get the angle to show off the expression well yet....
