Hi Guys,
i was out on a trip for a week leaving my flowerhorn pair in peace and they seem to have made the most of it. They were clearing the site to lay eggs when i left and by the time i came back they had truckload of free swimming fries. I am attaching the pics. sorry for the poor quality as i have clicked them on my cell phone.
Right now they are in the tank 4'x1'x2'. will drop a little bit of boiled egg yolk for them to eat today. yesterday was finely crushed dry shrimp.
Will keep updating this thread with their growth progress.
Thanks |

Hi Rahul,
congrats!
You can also crush the pellets you are feeding to the parents and feed the frys....crush them till they are like talcom powder.....hikari first bite is also accepted by them easily. these would be easy to feed and creates less mess in the tank compared to egg yolk.
almost half of them may remain stunted or better called as "runt"...in other words not quality ones.
Cheers,
Binesh |
