I have had a female pepp laying every 10-14 days for a period....

dont worry about the losses now... just eat your 66 smile.gif - give it away or feed kleinz's neighbourhood cat!!! make it disappear .... lol

if its happened once with your pepps its a fair bet it can happen again.. so fingers crossed and start again.....

yes 66 and 333 love to hunt and eat b/n fry smile.gif

Well the 66 hides on the opposite of the little cave in the wood, bet he sits there all day sniffing them and then pops out at night for a snack, the peppy is still a little bigger than him or herso hopefully he can fight the 66 off

White paint will wash away... bleach is permanent.
Or Peroxide, as an added bonus it will add air to the tank water tongue.gif

Haha, nice one.

Could always dry 'em out and have some ornamental albino peppies! I'm guessing they will be fairly slow growing. wink.gif

UHUH! So that explains why my pep spawns have been a tad on the small side lately, Also explains why my 333s are growing so quickly.
I spose being albino they wouldnt stand a chance either, next to nowhere they could hide being so bright.
Good luck with the next few spawns Hypan.
