NB: will need a roof over my head when the wife see another tank

So long as you bring that tank with you, you can kip at mine!

(You can leave the snakes where they are though)

dont know how i missed this thread, im looking for a breeding trio myself and using my 90 litre for them. The other alternatives are the Apisto Baenschi but may have to buy 5 juvies and see how it goes.

Keep it updated mate!

Well peeps just got in and we have a green light gogo Both females are bright yellow, which means they have layed eggs. Both of them spend 90% in their coconut hut maybe dart out for food and back in. Fry should be with us any where from 5-10 days will try get some pics

Well they just hatched some time in that last 3 hours, have some fry food from the LFS and just doing a batch of DIY brine shrimp. Exuse the poor pics but the fry is like 1mm and the camera is no SLR

Mama protecting them from the Paparazzi

Poor shoot but you can see maybe 20-30 fry in there

And of course jedwood came out of the house for pics!

 

[BigbruiserAl]

Thanks that hard is raising them i guess

 

[BigbruiserAl]

Well out of the 40 or so fry in the pic above i have about 10 left not happy at all

I suspect the male is picking them off....will be the U bend for him if does with next batch. Thinking of moving the fry out and placing them in with shimps

 

[L_Plates]

I would agree, remove the fry mate save what you have left.
