I guess that I'll have to move these little devils....only about 2wks from free swim and they're spiking out really good...some even have a bit of finage....good growth on this batch,,
(Manacapuru X pb silver ghost parents, both)
What size tank will you put them in?
Most likely the vacant 30gal, there quite a few and they're good size, I know at this pace, they'll likely not be in it long.....couple weeks??.....going down in a few to look it over again.....
I moved a bunch of fry around yesterday trying to make room for the 11 young adults I'm getting this weekend! I can't wait to see the fry from some of these. There is at least one pair that has already spawned in a community tank.

Good thing that I checked the 30gal....the heater didn't seem to be running right...replaced it and did a clean up/water change.....added the HOT Mag and left it...I'll check it later to see if temp's right ,etc...
You going to show us some pics of these babies?
Will do....just checked...temp's ok..the moves a go....
C'mon Jon, Jo showed us her's. Now show us yours..... ;D ;D ;D
Dennis
LOL.....mine are much smaller......but when they've settled in..I'll give it a try....
I may have something pre move tho..??....hang on. I'll look....
waiting.... ;)
ok..here ya go..my pics stink...so here's a vid..as you can see, I discover each parent carried a gold...must be from the PB silver ghost parent of the pair....the fry aren't quite 2 wks free swimming
The parents came from a Manacapuru crossed to a PB silver ghost.....I've discovered from the resulting fry that the parents, also carried a gold gene each....interesting results...
Parents are both +/g +/S +/pb
fry..........
