baby

HI all! I did a search here, and noticed a lot of people ask the same question about their Java Ferns: WHAT ARE THE LITTLE LEAVES GROWING ON MY JAVA FERN? ... or... WHAT ARE THE SPOTS ON THE BOTTOM OF MY FERN'S LEAVES? I thought perhaps a catch-all thread about Java reproduction would be...

does anyone know what the max water level for a juvenile african dwarf frog is? i know about the 10-12 inches thing but i can never find anything that specifies if that goes for any size adf or only the larger ones i have a 20 long that i keep my two adult adfs in and the water level is about 9...

My platy just gave birth and i was wondering if my male beta (in a 5g) would do well with them until they got bigger and i could sell them. i don’t want him to eat the fry, but i thought maybe they would be too big for him to eat. he is pretty aggressive- but doesn’t eat a lot.

My sisters came into town for a week and a half recently and I asked them to pick out some fish to add to my 55 gallon tropical tank! One of them picked out an African dwarf frog and the other picked out three lyretail mollies. I quarantined them for a week and a half and released them in my...

Hey guys! So I have been raising three baby platys for awhile now. I think they reached a month old a couple days ago. However, one died a day ago and when I looked closely at his body to find anything abnormal, I saw he had taken on a sort of krill shape (almost like a boomerang). I then looked...

i’ve recently had baby electric yellow cichlids exactly 19 babies but their is one baby that is darker then the rest and swims in circles the whole time while the rest swims around in the hang on breeder box. I moved the mom out of the breeding box after she had them, and i’m not sure if the...

Babies abound!! Here are some peacock cichlid eggs we found and incubated. Here are some peacock cichlid babies that just started free-swimming: And we have a guppy that is about to BURST!

The other day , i spotted a baby bristlenose pleco in my tank (65 G). I have 2 bristlenoses, one is a male and one a female. My worry is that I have 3 red taled sharks and 4 gouramis. I also have some oher fish but from what I know, they're harmless. I need to now if the shars or gouramis will...

Bought some plants earlier. Got them in the tank and noticed this little snail wandering around the leaves. Probably an easy identification but I'm new to tropical fish and wasn't sure. Thanks in advance.

I thought this would be a good way to keep track of my fish breeding project!   I have an amazing breeding project in mind that i want to do, right now i'm focusing on platy fish. I'm still waiting for them to give birth but love and behold i found one platy about 3 days ago and he's been such a...

Hi all, I was at a new LFS today just browsing around and maybe buy some plants and they had a massive tank with a bunch of "small goldfish" as they were labeled. I bought some plants and decided to buy these "small goldfish" Because they were $2 each... and there were HUNDREDS. I also saw in...

Was just checking up on the shrimp in my 60L and look what I spotted grazing on the gravel.................... ....... a baby assassin snail - it's about 5mm in length and I couldn't be more thrilled! It's really made my day!

Today I bought a baby betta from petco. I'm thinking it's a boy but I's not for sure. Also if anyone can take a stab at what kind of betta it is that would be great. (I haven't named it yet because I'm iffy on it's gender :/ )    

Currently in a hatchery, been in tank for around a month and a half, rarely comes out. Definitely female. Please help! Any suggestions and questions are welcome!  

  I was wondering what kind of snail this is because at the moment i have 3 nerite snails and they have laid eggs everywhere.  I know that they can lay eggs in FW but that they most likely do not hatch in FW.  So at first when i saw these guys and they were much smaller i thought that somehow...

One of my female guppies is only about 2 or 3 months old and she is pregnant again for the 2nd time.  I notices tiny black eyes moving around in her stomach last night.  Can anyone tell me how far along she is?   

These are some pictures of my new balloon molly.  Her stomach seems bigger than the others and her behavior also seems different.  I'm not really sure what a gravid spot is supposed to look like.  I was wondering if anyone can tell if she might be pregnant.

Hi everyone I just have some questions as to my new fry. I did a little water change today and my only guppy started popping out babies (I had some more, but i've had them a while and the last one of the two died last week) thankfully I was there, got my breeding cage and caught as many as I...
