HandS Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I have 9 Apisto trifasciata fry which are 5 months old now, and i can now tell the diference between male and female with some of them. Last week i decided to breed zebra danios in the tank next to them, they have all hatched, and now my largest female has taken too protecting the danio fry through the glass It is really funny to watch her keep her siblings at the other end of the tank. Im hoping this will improve her parenting skills for when she has fry of her own. Anyone else had somthing like this happen??? http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a230/ ...

ryanjury Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 I cant say that ive ever had that happen before mind you I haven't had too many tanks with dividers in them.. Did you breed your apisto's or buy them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandS Posted February 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 They are fish that i have breed myself, and it looks like i might have another brood on the way too :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanjury Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Nice, I just looked at your albums and saw all the fish and babies so I guess I could have found out for myself if id looked.. Are the photos of the parents of the babies? If you ever want to sell any let me know I might be keen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
