I have little MR wrigglers! ;D ;D ;D
I am so excited. The funny thing is I was not expecting it at all and have been ignoring this pair thinking the male was too young. He is just at one year old.
I was planning on moving these two on Monday because I have fish coming Tuesday from Cary. I always do my QT in the house away from all other fish. Now I'm not sure what to do.
This pair is not in RO water. They are on well water that is relatively soft. It's about 150ms. I can't tell the hatchout rate yet but I don't think it's very high. Once they become free swimmers I'll be able to see how many they have.
Attached is a photo of the pair from about a month ago. I don't want to take another photo until after they attach.

Congratulations!!!
Those are some great looking fish. Should make some great looking babies.

:thumbsup: good for you!
The parents look very uniform - are they nearly identical in size too?

So where are you going to put your new fish?

Carol,
The male is a little bigger then the female but not much. I have an open 55g for the juvies from Cary. The adult that's coming will have to go in the fishroom. I hate to do it but I don't think I have a choice. I'll just use the 20g that is the farthest from the rest of the fish.
