Fry Tanks

[Styx]

I have forty gallons worth of water devoted to fry right now. Thought I’d share my setup (by way of a description, ooh). I bought an 80-gallon pump for thirteen dollars, lots of airline tubing (around thirty feet I think) for four bucks I think, and a four way gang control valve for six or seven bucks.

The gang valve connects four ten gallon tanks to the pump, with switches for each one to individually control the air flow of each tank. Two tanks hold one batch of fry, and the other two holds the other batch. I know one tank has 20 fry in it, but I have no idea on the others. The spawns weren’t large to begin with. Maybe 100 in each of them. Argh.

I can’t take any photos of anything anymore because the digital camera just broke for no reason. Picked it up and tried to turn it on and it’s unresponsive, changed the batteries and the photo cards – nothing.

Anyway, I did manage to get this one halfway decent shot of the fry before the camera crapped out. Look how cute they are:

They're really cute.
My guppy had 5 fry about 2 weeks ago, only one has survived so far. But he's doing really well.

What a nightmare, I'd probably cry if my camera broke. And sure enough everyone in the fishroom would strike the perfect pose at that very minute!!!

Precious babies What are they out of? Looks like they're going red.....ish. Possibly copper?
