I did a water change last night on a tank where I have neo. brichardi fulwe fry growing, and noticed some pinheads, probably only a couple of weeks old? Would have been about the same time as I moved the parents on.

Nice to see some breeding action guys ;)

Today I spotted:
Neolamprologus buescheri kachese fry about 1cm
A heap more Neolamprologus multifacsiatus and brichardi
Pseudotropheus williamsi with another gobfull
Taiwan reefs mouthful
But best of all Cryptoheros septemfasciatus - laid eggs ad hopefully they're able to raise some juvies. Probably the third to fourth spawn and this time it's been a long time between drinks - had some domestic violence issues to sort out

Finally my current ray pair have had there first batch of pups.
Nice quality 3 ways, 4 boys and a girl. Really happy!
Lucky I was home and my fiancé could help, the dad tried to eat one, as did my bass and my Lima!I've realised it's hard to scoop up tiny pups in a 7x2.5 with other big fish. But all is well and the mum is smashing the food again, thumbs up all round for me

I'm planning to keep 1 and maybe grow out another.

But yes the others I will sell. I have had a bit of interest, so maybe in a few weeks once I can see they are feeding and stable they'll be up for sale B)

My L.Hecqui finally spawned after what seemed like forever of them just squabbling and courting I saw the tiniest of fry hanging around the entrance of the shell

A female Callochromis macrops emptied her mouthful into the fry tank last night. Got around 11 or 12 fry.
