    Well phase 1 I'm just taking necessities. Once I get settled I'll eventually ship the fish and bring the dog. Still... Majority of my stuff will stay here, parents moving into my place since they hated living in Vegas.

    Nothing new to really report. Fish are doing great.









    The breeding pair are continually spawning. Their first set of fry that I was able to separate where doing alright but they slowly disappeared. That's when I noticed that the parents where eating them. Once the numbers got down to 7 I removed the divider. Unfortunately none made but they did spawn immediately. I didn't get to divide that spawn I. Time and they all got eaten while I was at work. I was able to divide this past spawn before they became free swimmers.

    The pair has continued to spawn under my parents care. For those that didn't know I moved to New Jersey a few weeks ago and left behind all the aquatic stuff. As of now it'll stay put with the help of old friends and my parents till I return to AZ.

    Nice to know that the fish are doing very well in your absence Paul. You are lucky to have such good caregivers.

    Quintin, Paul is currently living away from home and unable to do anything with the fish.

    Quick update. Still breeding but they eat as they free swim. Other than that they're doing great!!! My mom is doing a good job.
