Stephanie Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Mine were always on the bottom of the tank and they've all developed ventrals and they've been on microworms everyday. I wouldn't stress too much as long as the bottom is spotless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trilobite Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 How big is the biggest one? If s/hes big enough to eat the small fry and you want to spare them then I'd take him out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamH Posted February 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 I'll do it tomorrow, s/he's almost big enough to eat mozzie larvae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Sam - ease up on the amount you are feeding and hopefully they will lift off the bottom of the tank. Too many microworms, bbs will do it but not sure about the decap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamH Posted February 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Added a small pump and that's got them swimming around a bit more, also makes all the fish poo and mircroworms collect in one spot. Turned it off now though as I've noticed more dead fry than usual :-? Just removed the pump, three of my biggest stuck in it as it came free last night. Plus twelve or so others now that I've cleaned it out. Gutted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trilobite Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Hey Sam, Any updates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamH Posted March 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Uhh... Yep! There's about 3 around the 1" mark and they all look the same. Chasing each other round too. Then there's 10 or so behind them, still quite small but far more colourful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
