mcrudd Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Still not sure how many there are, they are never all out at the same time, lots hiding inbetween the plants and rocks and underneath the driftwood. I would probably esitmate about 60 to 80. My first batch was 80 so probably closer to 80. They are very active little things too sorry about the video footage from about 1:08 but my camera is seven years old and not of the best anymore, need to get a new one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcrudd Posted February 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Instead of starting a new thread, I will just ask you guys here. How big should the babies be before I can house them successfully. With me living in Beachlands they will have to do some travelling when their owners come and pick them up, and do you guys think that two dollars for one is reasonable?

Mikey Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 I love that first pic. "Pleco's.... Chaaaaaarge!" Great work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcrudd Posted February 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Dad came to eat some Zuchini he prefers that over pumkin, although his kiddies love the pumkin and not so much the zuchini. They are growing so quick, some of them are almost 4cm though most of them are still 3cm. I will sell them once most of them are 4cm edited to add sorry about the pink red line, my camera is old and needs replacing :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcrudd Posted February 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 Thanks Sophia He is a very good dad, all his kids are so nice and strong. I had one wee one that I found in the filter and then I put him in the tank, thinking aww he won't survive cause he was thin and teeny, but guess what. Dad took him in, I could see the little one at the entrance of Dad's cave and now the little guy is thriving. He is a wonderful dad, I just could not get over it. :love: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Hiya Melanie, I'm glad he's giving you as many fry as he gave me lol 4 cm is a good size and $2 each is a good price which should see them go fairly quickly. They are a pretty hardy fish, when i sent 10 GBA's to someone, from the time they went into the bag till they came out was 54 hrs with no losses. It shouldn't be long before there's more lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
