Them plats are very busy. ;D

If true to form, the other pair will spawn too....that would make two pairs in the grow out/pairing tank, plus the main pair in the top 30....sweet ;D

My plat pair will be the first 29 that I set up.  I hope they don't need a lengthy acclimation period to the new water.  I remember it being kind of hard like my Fox River water.

Grab a few jugs, or so, out of a grocery store water machine(Wally World)...and use that until you can settle them in on the local water......transition will go smoother.....about $ .24/gal...
