Last week I got a batch of Molly fry to be used as both feeders and to raise
several up (they're Yucatans, and I like this type better than the Shenops). I culled the week or the ones without the cirrect body shape, etc and dropped one into each male Betta tank and the rest of the culls into the 75g for the Angels and female Bettas. All were gone in less than 1 second...except for one Betta. He's claimed him as a pet I guess. The flare buddy next to his tank sure wants that little fry and makes a good show trying to snatch him up. I thought maybe the fry was too large....so I put in a smaller one. Nope. Now his pet has a buddy. I will say, every once in a while he chases them....but it likes for the fun of the chase...when he's well within reach of a strike..he turns away. I swear, you can almost hear him saying..fish are friends not food....AH! That movie has corrupted my fish now! So for now....one of my boys has 2 pets. They'll need to be removed soon enough, as he's only in a 1g tank. As for the rest of the Molly fry that were kept....they're happily in a 21/2g for now. |
