L144 head count

[Gem400]

I've done a head count of my young L144 that hatched at the end of April while I was moving them into a bigger tank... I have 155, thats after a few pale runts didn't make it. This was their first spawn so I'm supprised at the numbers.

Cheers
Gemma.

155 :clap: that sounds huge for a first spawn. how many adults are in the tank would it have been possible to have a double spawn from 2 females.

No just the pair, the female is in my avtar and she's a lot bigger than the male, she keeps trying to get in the males cave again but he's having none of it at present. I must have had at least 10 losses with the ones that simply didn't grow well, my dad guessed I had 70, I said 100 so I was pretty shocked to find this many although there is still a couple of runts left. Now I'm thinking where am I going to put them all, the average size is 4cm so I might have to start moving them on soon.

Cheers
