Time to move the multitudes.

These are next generation of Blue Silver crossed with a HB.  I tried getting Blue HBs from an earlier spawn from the same cross.  None turned.  I "iced" them a couple of weeks ago.  I thought I'd try again with the same pair and I have millions.  When I iced a bunch of fish I had room to move the millions from a 29 to a 65.  Poor things were so cramped in the 29.  Less than 2 weeks later the poor darlin's are cramped in a 65.  I've considered my alternatives.  I could fill the 100 gallon tank in the weakest part of a stand than wants to fall down.  I could set up an 150 gallon container for them outside.  I could ice them.  I could put them in with the Dots who are in a 150 gallon container outside.

Decisions decisions...I have decided to transfer them to the containers with the Dots.  I will need the 2 empty 150 gallon containers for more important fish when my stands are being rebuilt.
Always move forward. Never look back.
