Wa lau. Looks like quite a bunch there. There seems to be another fish in there in your video. Didn't you remove all other fishes? Try feeding the fries BBS yet?

**Shadow** · 24th Aug 2007, 11:49

Yes have some otos and cory there. Tried BBS yesterbay, but it seems like the BBS to big for them. They parent end up eating BBS.

Is that C. pygmaeus in the 2nd video?

Congrats on your spawn....seldom see rams spawn in local tanks

Keep it up!!

**thwack** · 24th Aug 2007, 19:19

Shadow, how big is the tank ? Thanks

**Shadow** · 24th Aug 2007, 20:31

I hope at least 10 frys survive because I do not khow how to feed them, BBS is too big for them. I had about 20 frys now

My tank is 1.5ftx1ftx1.2ft, medium-ly planted.

bro shadow,
maybe you can try feeding frozen or live daphnia.
I use them for my 5 days old discus fries.

**Shadow** · 24th Aug 2007, 21:23

is daphnia smaller than new hatch brine shrimp?

**illumnae** · 24th Aug 2007, 23:25

they should be fine Shadow, i didn't see my caca fries eat either for the first few days before they started eating decap bs eggs, but they somehow managed to find microscopic food and were round and fat all the time

**whiskerbreed** · 25th Aug 2007, 03:47

Maybe, you can try liquifry..
It's basically just a liquid food..for tiny fries, of course..

**planted86** · 25th Aug 2007, 18:48

**Shadow** · 25th Aug 2007, 20:35

female is smaller, stomac area a bit pinkish/redish and the first dorsal fin shorter.

**Shadow** · 31st Aug 2007, 22:42
