So about a year ago I recieved 6 young RT's from Keith, spent alot of time with this group and managed to get two suspected pair's... well last week I confirmed one of them..
laid eggs on temp. strip...
moved them after hatching to the cone...
moved them back again...
and finally are free swimming
congrats again Grampa...

Your discus are talking to you....are you listening
Re: Keith's a grampa
Hey Jason,
Congrats man.
Superb looking RT pair. How many fry do you suspect made it.
I could only wish my RT's start to pair off soon.
Keep us updated Jay.

Re: Keith's a grampa
Congrats to both of you.
I had the pleasure of seeing these parents in person a few weeks ago, and it is a very nice looking strain.

Re: Keith's a grampa
Thank's everyone, these two have really surprised me with how well they have done on their first go at raising fry... I think it's safe to say that pair #1 is indeed proven.... Now to try the other suspected pair!!!

Re: Keith's a grampa
Congrats Jay, so nice when they get it right on the first go. I have watched the Cuipeau X females eat their eggs for months. It would literally be wild if the Tefe's are my first confirmed pair. Good luck with the second pair. May the Perkins line get a firm foundation.
Your discus are talking to you....are you listening
Re: Keith's a grampa
Nice looking fish, guys...I like how the spawned on the backside of that temp strip!......Maybe the future; just paint a black stripe on the end of your breeder tanks!

Re: Keith's a grampa
update of the fry at almost 2 week's... Keith was over yesterday to see them himself he also to a video and some pic's I'm hoping he'll post his shot's as well seeing as i'm not to good with a camera.
the last pic's not so good but I was trying to catch them playing pass the fry...

Re: Keith's a grampa
They look stunning, man! I really love Red Turqs and the pair you have there is full of potential. Raise F2 to adult size, then get something nice and matching from Hudson and have some more fun!
