They really stuff themselves, always fat bellies. Some are probably a half inch

elcue September 10th, 2014 06:38 PM

Some are close to an inch. Starting to take frozen bloodworms

Never too late.
 
Those are cool fish, growing fast in your care. You sent your good breeding vibes my way when i think you asked if my ol silver dollars ever laid eggs. 22 years no eggs observed,yet one fry today.http://forum.brooklynaquariumsociety...&pictureid=105http://forum.brooklynaquariumsociety.org/picture.php?albumid=14&pictureid=111:slap:http://forum.brooklynaquariumsociety...&pictureid=107

elcue September 12th, 2014 01:25 PM

WOW That's so great. Keep looking, find five more. I think you need six, two month old fry, for the breeder awards program. Nice shot.
:clap: :clap:

dsuperman September 13th, 2014 12:48 PM

I'll keep looking but it might be another 20 years before i see another one,lol. I wonder how healthy this one fry could be with such old parents.:thinking:

elcue September 13th, 2014 03:32 PM

That's pretty funny, but keep looking anyway. The parents are obviously healthy, who knows, in the wild 20 might be young for silver dollars. Maybe there's hope for my raphaels (they were 5in when I got them in '95)

dsuperman September 14th, 2014 04:35 PM

Raphaels are one cool cat. Thats some commitment when you have the same fish 20 plus years.:rockout:

elcue September 15th, 2014 12:08 PM

Sometimes I forget that they're even here, they've become fixtures - ugly @$$ fixtures :chuckle:

dsuperman September 20th, 2014 09:43 AM

I kept looking,now i don't even see the one. :hahano:

elcue September 20th, 2014 12:18 PM

Don't ya hate when that happens. ok, so now switch to looking for eggs! If you see them siphon them...

I wonder what's doing w/ the flowerhorns?

elcue September 20th, 2014 01:39 PM

Spawning ocellata...
 
An excerpt from the movie...

dsuperman September 20th, 2014 08:36 PM

Thats what i'm gonna name my band.:slap: Great shot, you need more oscillating ocellata.

elcue September 24th, 2014 12:04 PM

Spawning ocellata...
 
:ohnoes: Noooo! YOU need more ocellata. Come to the big auction, they'll be waiting for you. I have an open reciprocation ticket, w/your name on it that needs to be closed out (its accruing interest). :chuckle:

dsuperman September 25th, 2014 10:32 AM

Reciprocating? , or oscillating?. Make up my mind.! :slap:

elcue September 25th, 2014 02:10 PM

I'd like to say that I "saw" that coming - but I didn't

dsuperman September 26th, 2014 09:23 AM

lol :slap:

Astchiefy September 26th, 2014 09:37 PM

Wow that's cool i never got mine to sown although they sometimes locked in the mating stance. What's the secret?

elcue October 1st, 2014 05:56 PM

Those two in the pic spawn regularly, but success requires a peaceful tank, with nothing to eat the eggs/fry. Most of the eggs were eaten by the cory cats. Atsy, the adults are spoken for, but would you like some young ones? two months old, maybe 1.5 in.

dsuperman October 2nd, 2014 10:43 AM

They seem rare on AB. One auction only right now asking $50 for 5? [i think ]. :bow2:

Astchiefy October 3rd, 2014 09:17 AM

Betta Mystery
 
Think I'm going to teach mine to read cause they are not following the rules. No fry no action. I think my bettas are gay... lol

He has a few nice auctions for mouthbrooders. Too bad I don't ship

dsuperman October 3rd, 2014 09:42 PM

With nice fish like that, maybe you should. :thinking:

Nice. This time you were ready w/ the siphon and a film crew. :bow2: Hatch those eggs :rockout:
I wonder at what age they reach maturity?
