L201 Breeding well. :)

Thought I'd share,


My L201 have breed for the first time over the last 4 - 5 weeks.

I have 4 fish in total, at first I thought I had 4 females.

Then: they breed about 5 weeks ago, and I realised obviously 1 is male..

Then: I took them from him about 2 weeks later, there were 6 wrigglers.

1 died, the rest are growing strong as of now.


Then: in the 3rd week, another one breed, again, with only 4 wrigglers this time.


Then: in the end of 4th into the 5th week another batch of eggs.

I took them from him today, and there's around 18 eggs, I let him have them for a few days, so not sure if he ate any or not.


But: what Im working out now is: I have 2 females and 2 males.

Same male held the eggs, so not 100% yet, but I'm fairly sure the third batch of eggs was from the same female who spawned the first batch of eggs.


I find that awesome.

to have had her spawn for the 1st and 2nd time with in 5 weeks..


Cheers,

Karl.

Thanks mate.

Ive got 22 total fry growing out atm, and 18 that still have their egg sacks. They're all not far from the same size, because they were from small spawns all close together.
She left the cave 2 nights ago, I was actually lucky enough to see her leave.. :)
As she left - an egg came out with her,, just a single solitary one lol, It seemed like she dropped it on the way out.. not sure if its fertile or not, but, I took it, to see if I can raise a single egg. .
Shouldnt be too much different.
I had a quick look in with the torch, and it looks like a small-ish clutch again, maybe a max of 15-20.

Ill take them from him tomorrow morning.
