My orange heads have made sweet, sweet spawn again. I hope they go through with it this time.

That is an egg-cellent photo you got there Kleinz

Hubby's Electric Blue female has a mouthful.  It is her first time so we watch and wait and see if she knows what she is doing.  Fins and fingers crossed.

 

Oh and the guppies had babies hehehe

Orange heads got hungry and changed their mind about parenthood

[Poncho]

Give them a few goes to get it right kleinz - it'll happen

[Kleinz]

Gotta say, I do not have much luck with any of my eartheaters yet.

[Fox]

Starting to get some spawning action with Freddies & Boourti

 

 

 

I'm hoping to get a pair from both soon. They will also have their own tanks soon as well.

Julidochromis regani are defending the rights of a few fry at the moment. I think the fry will survive

Leptasoma 'kigoma' female has a small mouth full after a session tonight. She has a fry from the last spawn swimming around.

Yay my 1st desert gobie spawn, but conveniently in 1 of 4 caves supplied? hell no he has excavated under a jumble of little rocks. Believe this spawn is doomed as they are in a community tank whilst they grew up but plan to do a little tank for them and give the breeding a proper go. Charming little fish

We have itty bitty Electric Blue fry!!  I figured our little first time mum was ready to go in the next day or so and we set up a tank for her next to the main tank so we could hopefully let her spit in there and not lose any fry to the other EB's in the main tank.  I didn't get a chance to move her though because as I checked the temp on the nursery tank I glanced over and she spat right in front of me.  In the space of 5 minutes we had caught all the other EB's and pulled all of the rocks out of the tank.  She was put in the nursery tank where she spat a couple more fry and then I caught the remaining fry out of the main tank.  We have something like 8-12.  They hide a bit and when they are out they move really quickly so hard to count.  We are thrilled as we didn't really expect to get any from her first mouthful.

 

We also have Brichardi fry and, as of this morning, Leleupi fry.  I have sold all my common guppies and now only have the Purple Moscows and of course they have had more fry hehe

Large hatch of rainbow cichlid
and just noticed a batch of salvini eggs,
happy times :-)

L134s had eggs two weeks ago. Saw them after I cleaned the tank and knock the eggs out, like an idiot. Male wasn't having a bar of them afterwards. I put some of the eggs into a fry saver, 8 little fellows swimming around all healthy

Neolamprologus tetracanthus are now protecting their first batch of fry. So stoked

[Mattia]

Finally got my first Australian batch :

Good job Mattia!

For those interested in discus genetics, here's a couple of my mongrel experimentations:



three week old discus fry ( blue diamond x alenquer) enjoying a swim in green soup. They are mainly red colored at the moment.





6 month old Blood pigeon x turq. The fry seem to be turning out orange with 9 stress bars and peppering.

Love the first photo. What do you plan on doing with the frankenfry???

[deliriouz]

gave some to a few fishy mates and the rest - will grow them up larger and see how they color up..probably line breed the nicer ones.
