Here are some pics of the 100's of new fry. I have video as well posted on photobucket, but I can't remember which link to use or how to post it. If anyone knows...please let me know.

Here are their grow out tanks that I purchased yesterday. They have the light included and I will use whisper HOB power filters. I LOVE the 26in height. Once they outgrow these tanks, they will be transferred and split up into 20G XH tanks untill they are ready for new homes. (If I get them to live that long) They will be kept bare bottom and have some macros and falke hitches for ease of cleaning.

I also added a pic of daddy right before giving birth

i do not have the skill or patience for horsies but those things are so dang cute lol maybe one day...............

I finally got an accurate count today when I transferred them to a clean kreisel. There are 315 live ones and 21 were dead

I'm guessing I will probably get 20+ or so to adults. ( Ok...I HOPE anyways ) I can already tell which ones have the best chance of making it and which ones will not. There are atleast 20 very strong swimmers and excellent eaters. There quite a few that have snicked too much air so they tend to want to float. Then there are the teeny tiny ones that don't stand much of a chance at all. I'm not one for "culling" the weaker ones out, so I will wait untill they die to dispose of them.

I just got another batch of fry today. This is the 2nd batch in 7 days, lol. I got fry everywhere yeah babies!!!

I'm not giving any of them names...just too many. It's cool to see how much they grow in one week. The 7 day olds are twice the size of the newborns. I'm going crazy with the different aged BBS. The 7 day olds are eating older enriched brineshrimp. The newborns eat newly hatched BBS. Just so I don't feed the older bbs to the younger fry, I made tags for the BS hatchers.

Anyone else have seahorses???? I feel all alone in this forum, lol. Susan has seahorses and so does DavidP but they are never on here.
