    Pat, he told me over sixty. I gave him the whole clutch after losing count while bagging. I found three stragglers today.

    Aug. 8th..
    two 50% water changes..

    feed live brine shrimp for first time.. they took to it with gusto..

    some seem to more hungry/actively pursuing food.. others not so much..
    thinking the tank might be too big for them.. might put them in a 10g for couple of weeks..

    in addition to crush PRO GROW BH FLAKE, thanks to bill
    and the CYCLOPEEZE frozen bar

    Way to go Skip! I'm quite thoroughly jealous now yanno and if you're not careful I just might drive myself down to Texas and pay those little guys a midnight visit. (one cooler, one heater, one small fish net and they're MINE!)

    Good luck with the contest and these cute little guys. =)

    Default OBSERVATION>>

    ~~~~
    they don't like the LIGHT from overhead.. it pushes them down..

    so i turned live over to top is not bottom and light shines to bottom of top rack..

    they are more free swimming instead of hiding under heater and pre filter..

    I am a little concerned about the ones not seeming as hungry. They all ate with gusto here. Keep a close eye on this my good buddy.
