Woke up this morning to my first fry!
They were in my 55gal guppy and platy setup. I think there platy because they got a small amount of orange on them.

I only saved 4. They were all over the place and they were to hard to get out of the gravel. i don't know how many are left in the tank.

But the rest are safe and sound in the breeder net! :11: :19:

Get yourself a turkey baster. They work great for sucking up fry. So much easier then chasing them with a net.

Congrats! thumbs2:

Congratulations!!!! :11: Finally!!! :19: I was just about to ask if anything was happening on that front!!

A lot may survive, they are very good at hiding in the gravel etc.

It's great to get baby fry! :fish: I know that you can't save them all. But they are so cute and fun to watch grow up. I have 5wk old endler Tiger frys 25 of them from 1 momma Tiger. I can't wait for the colors to come out in the males. I think that in about another week or two I will be able to tell. Have fun watching the babies grow up! :fish:
