Anjum Posted January 30, 2023 Author Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) Goodeids are doing well. I saw 2 fry at the same time yesterday. (ETA: just saw 3 fry!) And another female seems to be getting a little rounder. So that's all promising. Their jungle tank: Got some new plants for the 29 (w/ the co-op light), couple kinds of ludwigia, bacopa, a water sprite & some Hygrophila corymbosa cuttings. So did some trimming & moved some plants around. Looking forward to it all growing in under good light!

Anjum Posted January 31, 2023 Author Share Posted January 31, 2023 Fairly certain I saw 4 fry this morning. It's like they passed a week old & are now willing to swim around a bit more. Still hard to get photos though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anjum Posted February 9, 2023 Author Share Posted February 9, 2023 Pulled 6 Cory eggs & put them in the shrimp tank this morning. Now we wait... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anjum Posted February 13, 2023 Author Share Posted February 13, 2023 Confirmed sighting of 6 Goodeid fry today. I'm glad to know my creation of hides & addition of dense vegetation worked. For a while, I didn't see more than one at a time & I feared they were either picked off or not getting enough to eat. But they're putting on size & swimming more freely. They're approaching a cm in length, maybe about 8 mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
