Albino (spotted) Turq pair with frys

[MKD]

Hello all,

Here are my Albino Turq pair (Per seller, they're spotted but washed away). Here you go. let me know any inputs
Spawned : 06/20
Hatched : 06/23 they shifted too different spot of cone. They were tiny and we could not see any black eyes. All you could see just moving things on cone and parents were watching them.
06/25: this time you could see 2 black eyes, they moved around the cone, but sometimes fell toward bottom of tank. The parents picked up and put back on cone

thank you and enjoy new pics

Some of them mature enough dettach from parents, they are picking on CBW look so funny and some are not. I know some of you take female out, why and when?

[rdiscus]

Think only take female out if they're fighting ... I don't, I let both parents take care the fry

[MKD]

Sound great but i notice the female pushing the male couple times. Have you or anyone ever seen female eat her frys just because she wants to spawn again? i want to make sure i am doing right and able to keep all frys.

thank you rdiscus for confirming

[rdiscus]

Mine don't, but I heard that they will eat the fry if they spawn again ... so keep the eye on them

3rd week update. They're healthy and stronger. still feeding BBS and CBW, kids are playing their own most of time and pick on CBW.

Thank you to SimplyDiscus and all everyone here. Everything i did is what i learned from SD, so it's not really different/new to some people. First I did a DIY LED strip (see 1st video) and put right in front of tank and turn on over night. This gave them some light so parent can care for frys and frys able to see parents. Second thing i did, I took out sponge filter but still kept air tube in the tank for O2, then lowered water level down enough cover parents' upper fin.

well my camera broke, so i have no pic/video update. They're not much bigger than last update, they're eating BH, CBW and BBS. They're almost 100% dettached from parents. 1 thing i noticed 2 visitors came to my house yesterday, the female was very aggressive when they were close to the tank. That's very cool. I am thinking i'll move the frys next week to 25G tank.

Update: 100% tap water. WC 2x a day feeding homemade BH mixed and live CBW.

[MKD]

Ok it's time to update. They're about dime size and eating BH, CBW with 2x WC per day. It is 100% tap water ph 7.8, tds 490 ppm, 84F temp.


Ok I decided to remove parents today.
