Guppysnail Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Congratulations! I know how exciting it is to finally get successful fry. They look great between BBS. I always think of pictures right after I feed 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexi B Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 For a moment, I thought all the tiny specks of baby brine were the fry 🤦♀️ This is super cool, though! I'm just about to start doing research on breeding my pygmy cories and hope that I can get lucky with babs in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PineSong Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Hooray for getting them to the next stage! They are cute and numerous! What kind of parents do they come from? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We find our cories will eat the eggs before we can separate them. Good luck On 7/11/2022 at 3:41 PM, PineSong said: Hooray for getting them to the next stage! They are cute and numerous! What kind of parents do they come from? The parents are a pair that paired off from our main display tank . We had purchased about 10-12 young angels then we ended up with 3 breeding pairs . We have had a bunch of eggs laid and got them to the wiggler stage but would die after that . Our lives are pretty busy normally but recently we have had a little extra time ( example I was able to come home a couple times a week) so extra water changes in the breeder box etc and we were able to get them past that wrigglers stage. The picture is the pair that these fry came from. A Silver and Marble . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Sonnier Posted August 18, 2022 Author Share Posted August 18, 2022 A little update on the Angels . They are getting close to market size . They ended up being the black dominate color from their parents . 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Sonnier Posted August 18, 2022 Author Share Posted August 18, 2022 Yeah it was a fun experience . Meanwhile the parents have laid 2 clutches but I didn't have tank space to even bother trying to deal with them . Lol I guess more tanks are in our future .
