L340 spawn :D

hello all.

so it would appear ive had a suprise spawn:clap: as i went up to check on them 4 days ago i noticed 2 baby plecs trying to eat the bloodworm/brine/mysis i put out for the adults.

i didnt notice any trapping or anything so as you can imagine this came as a nice suprise. They are around 1cm long and have no egg sacks.
the tank did seem to go quiet for a couple of weeks so i assume this happened then.

I only spotted 2, and now the tank has become more active with the adults. im a little worried, however as i havent seen them since.
so question is where do i go from here?

They are in their own 24g tank. 2 filters, 2 1000LPH internals well aerated.

they have only been in this new tank to their self for around 3 weeks. i was quite suprised as the move proved quite stressful. ideally i want the best survival rate but as i only spotted 2 free swimming plecs in the tank i fear the worse.

Should i take this as a lesson and take more notice in future? making sure to get the male and cave into a fry trap?

Any input welcome. thanks in advance. hope everyones well. good to be back .

regards charles.

Congrats:clap:

3 weeks, that's quick.
There is probably more in there that you cant see, they will start coming out more as they get bigger.

well theyve been in the new tank 3 weeks but have had them for 1 and a half years. excellent thanks so you thinik i should leave them in the main tank for now? and see if they grow on?

They do grow better when left in the parents tank but I still take all my babies to raise in a tank of their own.
