Congrats on the spawn, every first spawn is to be celebrated! :clap: :woohoo:

 

[Rabbit]

Very true. Im having trouble getting pics but will put them up asap.

congrats mate, hope they all survive for you

Well at least bns do breed and don't seem overly finicky over us drooling over their eggs and fry. Good practice for when the expensive L's get around to breeding.

 

[Rabbit]

Update: all the eggs have hatched and are little wrigglers, ill leave it a little while untill the egg sacks almost gone before putting them into a fry saver then put up some pics.

 

[Brengun]

Cool Rabbit, the eggs musta been good ones. Can't wait for photos.

 

[Rabbit]

Another updated eggsack has probably a day left in it, so it only took 3-4days.
Pics up tonight.

 

[Rabbit]

Heres some pics.

And dad with them a few days ago.

Has anybody else seen longfins this young? if so should i be able too see the finnage?
Oh and there was 59 in total in there first batch WOW.

 

[hooked_zeus]

that's a good size clutch considering it's their 1st spawn. No you won't notice much of a a difference untill they are about a 2-4 weeks old



congrats

 

[Rabbit]

[Rabbit]

Just an update dads on eggs again!

 

[Rabbit]

Is anyone else breeding these?
As since the 20-5-09 dad is now on his 5-6th (on 2 batches of eggs) clutch!
So far the first clutch has been the largest all though the 2 he's on now look to be around the 120 mark in total, dad comes out gets food and goes back in so thats not a problem but is this amount of clutch's typicall of longfins?
