hmm... my newsfeed didn't get this message, but i found it on google
groups.

the pretty females didn't make any pretty babies, probably from
stored sperm


I let the female have 1-2 litters before i started letting the fry
stay in the tank. How long can the gups store sperm?

I've found one page that says 8 broods... perhaps i should take "Eve"
out and start again with some of the older fry not exposed to mature
males other than "Adam".

I guess this will happen naturally and i shouldn't be too
concerned since i'm not breeding for show...

Ich habe keine Ahnung was das bedeutet, oder vielleicht doch?

Last I had broods, it was 3 good batches, and 1 very small, so maybe
somewhere between 3 and 5...

I tried to do what you're doing... for me, I just didn't have time to follow
4 females, their batches, and who had been with who... moving adam and eve
to john and nancy's tank, blah blah....
