lol p_d ,it's an annoying tune. I feel your pain and I apologise
Thanks fishylover!

Well, I just finished syphoning out unhatched eggs. I found no little corpses so I can assume that everyone who hatched made it to the freeswimming stage. They look great,very still,hiding under leaves and whatnot. I haven't fed yet but I'm about to. I wanted to clean up first. Looks to be a good thirty of them

Good luck with your new babies. They sound so good being nice and still and sticking to the glass

 

[wuvmybetta]

They're the bestest babies I've ever had!! I just know it.
I know,I know...they're only like three days old But it doesn't matter,they already rawk. I walked in to check on them a minute ago and I saw a good 24 out and about. They're already eating bbs and I've seen them eat worms. I haven't seen bbs consumption but I put some in there last night and today and they're all gone and the babes have orange bellies right now

GLEE!

Well,I have good news and bad news. Well,two bad things, firstly my brine are driving me mad! I tried to offer them grindals yesterday but they didn't take too kindly to it. Then I did a water change last night and found five dead babies under a plant weight I guess they got stuck under there during the last water change,uggh it makes me ill.

On a better note, they're doing very well and they have dorsals. I noticed they've moved to the upper level today, which indicates their labyrinths are developing. And D'oh! as I was typing this I realized I didn't plug their heater in after last nights wc So maybe they're only towards the top because they're cold
Kidding,they're fine,it's the labyrinths The fish room is plenty warm

Here's a small crew of surface dwellers.
