Hi drewry

I hope you have better luck this time around. Just the fact that you've succeeded getting to hatch already will help. Before you know it, you'll have more fry than you know what to do with.

Keep am eye open for any food or sign of fungused material on the tank bottom. The fry are also subject to fungus. Someone--Frank maybe--swabs the bottom of the tank daily. It is more involved than merely changing water. The bottom of the tank must be kept clean--another reason I went to nets. As I said before, I kept tossing the little guys out with the bath water.

well im in to minds weather to put them in a floating container this time or leave them in the 2ft tank when they hatch but what ever i decide i do have a couple of hours each day for maintainence
