LOG A SPAWN →My kribs started circling the flowerpot cave tonight, pic below. Never bred them before and I only have the one tank. Do you leave the parents with the fry or pull them to a tub? Curious what worked for people with limited space.
Follow up on the plug spacing thread. The two touching plugs are still shut tight at lights on, the rest of the rack is open and fine. Nothing is melting, no slime. I moved the touching ones about two fingers apart tonight. How many days of closed do you give a frag before you start dipping again or moving it?
Added the group yesterday morning like we talked about. Lights dimmed, and nobody showed their face all day. Last night around lights off three of them came out and started rasping on the wood. Is a slow start like that normal, and how long before they are out in daylight? Pic below of the group in the transport tub before I added them.
Woke up to the heater on the fry rack stuck off, water was down to 21C from 26C. Fry look fine so far but I'm nervous. I'd rather not warm them too fast. Do you bring the temp back up gradually with a spare heater or just swap the water with warm tank water? Pic below of the replacement heater going in.
One of my grow-out pairs finally laid last night on the ceramic cone in the bare-bottom tank. Both of them are fanning and guarding hard, pic below. I've heard first spawns usually get eaten or abandoned within a day or two. Do you pull the cone, leave it, or add something to the water? Not planning to raise the fry on the parents, just want to see how this goes.
auction ends in a few hours and i'm already staging boxes. thinking of lining the bottom with damp newspaper, bare root wrapped in paper, then a layer of bubble wrap on top so the leaves don't crush. anyone ship 30 leaf swords and have a better way to keep the outer leaves from tearing? pic below of the pile of boxes on the bench.
