..do the fry tend to swim up, or down towards the bottom in their early days??....I'm asking because I can anchor some guppy grass clumps....or float them....
when the weather warms, I'd like to snag a bunch from Dennis and see if I can get em going.... ;D

In my experience, depends, some species go up some go down.
Ask Dennis about the specific ones you get from him.

Celestial Pearl Danios.....



thanks, Bill ;D

They are all over the place. LOL  You will need to remove the adults if you intend to raise very many fry.  I used to use a large portion of java moss in one side of the tank, but have lately been using nylon mops.

Here's an old video from about 5 years ago.  The moss takes up about 1/2 of the 5.5 gallon tank and the fry are from top to bottom on the other half.

Ah....I see thanks, I wanted a better idea, and the vid helped... ;D

Jon, I just moved a group of month old fry into a 20 long grow-out.  They should be ready just in time for good shipping weather.
