wigglers

This morning I was doing my morning inspection of the 55 and, in the back corner, there was a pile of little Guianacara wigglers... ok, a blanket. They are blanketing the back corner of the tank. Don't ask for pics, I can't get them, as soon as I come up with a camera the parents freak out...

I have a couple pair but every time they seem to lay, too few hatch to wigglers and the parents just eat them. I think this one is special as I have a lot of them and the parents are moving the fry to a new location. Unfortunately I think they will still end up dying as they are in a display...

I was delighted to come home tonight to see one of my astatheros longimanus females all colored up (for as much as they can) and chasing everything in the tank away from a clay pot. Low and behold, there is a pile of wigglers in the bottom of the pot. Not sure which of the males is the father...

MY JAGS HAVE BEEN AT IT AGAIN AND BY THE LOOK OF IT ILL HAVE PLENTY OF JAGUAR WIGGLERS BY SATURDAY. SPRING IS TRULY IN THE AIR. THIS IS ANOTHER HIGH POINT IN THE HOBBY FOR ME. I LOVE IT WHEN MY FISH BREED. IT TELLS ME A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT IM DOING WORKS AND IT TELLS ME THE FISH ARE HEALTHY...

Friday night I was feeding some frozen food to the fish and all was going well. After feeding the "Nanolutes" I was walking past the tank and notice a small cloud of what I thought was some uneaten food. Well it turned out that it was actually a small clutch of fry :D. I will post some pictures...

I THOUGHT I LOST THEM BUT I WAS FOOLED BY MOMMA FESTAE. SEEMS SHE MOVED THEM UNDER A ROCK.:jumpy: IN THE PIC THEY ARE THE BROWNISH GRAY MASS IN THE POT.;) SHE MADE SURE THE PAPARAZZI WOULDNT BE ABLE TO TAKE GOOD PICS. :D
