this pair was guess work using my extremely accurate (50%) sexing methods :shock: :lol: :lol: . Third spawn and I have about 5 1/2 wrigglers.

They had lovely nice rings when they were fluorescent colour fed babies.

Well five and a half babies is better than none Samir :lol: :lol:

At least you know you have a fertile pair.

Be interesting to see how many of the babies have rings.

only the 1/2 hatched baby is left :lol: :lol: will put them on a sponge next time.
The hard part is over, now comes, growing out a few hundred to 10cm, just to get half a dozen near perfect rings. :roll:

changed pair, got too many eggs, so I'm not sure :?

was pretty sure it was a male, but 1000 eggs makes me think, maybe its 2 females. :lol: :lol: :lol: that's gotta be some kind of record if its a pair :shock:

some gone bad, some eaten, still around 500 and still not sure. have caged them now.

Scott, I've been feeding Pro More, still too early to give it a thumbs up, though that's probably it. i've got your female sitting with 400-500 eggs so hopefully you have some of the best mini rose reds coming your way, probably barless too :lol: :lol:

the rings are a pair , but he had a go at the eggs before i caged them and 50% are infertile, hope to get at least some fry
