Title: Love those orange bellies
Post by: waterboy on July 27, 2017, 09:34:04 AM
I have a jar full of free swimmers from a pair of Black Lace Angels.  Squirted baby brine shrimp in there and look at them later to see those orange bellies.  A good way to tell if they are healthy and going to make it.  They are scheduled to move to a 2-1/2 gallon tank today.

I am thinking of doing that as I seem to be running out of jars.  Just had to throw one away as the bottom cracked and broke.  Trouble is right now all the 2-1/2s are in use. I have one with baby bristlenoses, one with baby cories and 5 with baby angels. Although one tank of Angels is about ready to move to a ten gallon. Maybe I will have to think about getting a few more 2-1/2s.

I like the 2 1/2's because you get more room from them from the start, you don't need to move them from jars, and more room to work your maintenance on them....it's just a preference... huh
