Congrats, don't suppose you have any pictures of the eggs before they hatched? I want to know what to look out for

lol sorry

have u definately got a male? he looks slimline
while the females have a bigger belly.

i really didnt do anything to encourage them.
hang in there, they will be at it before u know it

ah dont have any pics of the eggs sorry
they were tiny, about the size of a grain of sugar (maybe smaller)
and transparant but she laid loads so seeing as i had no substrate in the tank
just loads of plastic weed (to stop the parents getting at the eggs)
you could say it looked like i'd missed some grains of sand lol

well we counted over 30 babies when they hatched but two weeks later theres
only one babie swimming around and no sign of any dead ones,
yes i did cover up the filter.

but anyway my danios have laid more eggs today lolfrisky lil things they are
