Ged Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 They will normally brood between 20-25 days. I know they are not very attractive but I would make an ice cream container fry saver which will allow you to put her in and spit naturally. Alternatively you can strip the fry. There are YouTube clips on how to do both. You can also have a look at Matthew's websitehttp://www.fishcave.com.au/diy/diy_frysaver.htmlZigzagfish also had some fry savers at one stage but I don't know if he still makes them.
