Ash Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Some of you might remember I lost my texas pair a while ago, here's a shot of them with a brood of fry... Well, one of their young that I kept from their 2nd last lot of fry has grown up a little & started to come into his own (at a piddly 6cm I might add) so here he is... Hope you enjoyed these Cheers Ash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 Cheers Matty, using the flash helps. Craig - as late as possible, depending on other tank mates & the parents themselves. As a rough guide, they should be bigger than a newborn guppy so they'll feed OK but smaller than a newborn electric yellow as by the time they reach that size they'll mostly be picked off - though I've only bred them in community tanks so perhaps with parents alone they'll get bigger?

Ash Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share Posted February 15, 2007 If I lived in Sydney I'd have no trouble offloading the 20 or so 6cm+ fry I have growing out too Thinking of keeping the best two as a pair, only got 5 of them to choose from, regardless I'm keeping that boy. Might snap a few synspil pics later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
