No colours yet so I will up date you again when that happens, I have know idea when that will be tho.

Oh , have been spawning the SJD'S for 3 days now, water conditions as last post . I've got 47 fertile eggs :) , way better then last time and another 30 I collected today but will have to wait 24 hours to be sure of there fertilaty. :-?

Well 5 days ago my 2 fry were 25mm , there now 35mm. 1cm in less then a week :o

There both the same size and 1 is clearly turning from female tan to male colourtion . You can see the yellow in tail coming threw, i gess the other is a female but will give it one more week before i'm sure . :roll:

I also , now have 257 eggs 2 or more days old .

If they hatch ( 5-8 weeks ) it will only take 6 week before I will have them available to nzka members. :wink:
