I have some fry that seem to be surviving!! I stripped my red zebra
last
night, I thought she was
holding only 1 or two fry, I was mainly stripping her so she could eat
again, she'd been holding for nearly 4 weeks. turns out, to my suprise,
10
little orange fry swam out of her mouth!! I'm pleased as punch. last
lot
of
fry I stripped from my two Eureka red females died from the tank being
only
99% cycled (traces of nitrite 0.5ppm), these guys are in a basket in
the
main tank, everything ok so far, I need to go buy some brine shrimp
eggs
now
to feed.

I tried to feed some crushed flake today, and a little crushed dried
brine
shrimp, they didn't eat it immediately. hopefully they will get hungary
this
afternoon.





Congrats Paul.. I don't strip my fish.. I have a 10g tank waiting to
go..
Although, this month looks like I am going to need a few more.. I have an
Electric Yellow, at least one of the Kenyi, and pair of Electric blues
holding..And I am still swampped with fry...

That was my better halfs solution too.. Bigger tank.. *lol* Aquabid here I
come.. Perhaps I will learn how to ship some fish sooner than later...
