    After keeping my pseudomugil red neon for several months, i finally see a fry After postponing plans to breed them for many months, i guess the fish got impatient and spawned by themselves in the 2ft tank that i placed them in.

    Unfortunately, since i wasnt expecting eggs, i didnt check the tank very often, and i guess most of the fry must have been eaten by the parents or by the peacock gudgeons.

    Fortunately i salvaged one, and now it is living happily with my yellow shrimps, probably snacking on all my shrimplets.

    Congratulations Lucas. I should have kept some when I had the chance but I didn't. I think Emokidz was trying to breed his as well.

    Haha, actually i think the price is not too expensive, compared to many other fish, the price is ok.

    Thanks I find that the males get really red as they mature, you should try keeping them How is Emokidz getting on with his red neons?

    I'm not sure but I think he should have a successful spawning by now. Given that these are Pseudomugil after all, the fry would be real tiny. I saw Ps. ivantsoffi fry from RonWill a few weeks ago. They were so small and if you didn't notice the shiny blue eyes they would look like some sort of insect larvae.

    Haha, yeah, i find it really hard to spot the fry, especially since i keep the adults in a planted tank that is extremely messy.
