Re: 200 gallon Tanganyika tank

i said you  should be fine letting them spit (i am not gonna try to catch anything in that tank   , anywho, just be extra patient because they take forever to spit., but i may take you up on julie fry in the future :wink:  those i will catch, but i will probably trade some multis for them, you need somethin else in the 210 and multis in the corner opposite the julies shoul be fine

Re: 200 gallon Tanganyika tank

At least. Usually closer to four weeks.

Re: 200 gallon Tanganyika tank

:dance: I just netted out my first fry and put in in a floating nursery in the tank. Who knows how many more there are left in the tank or how many more were released. Good news, I saw the fry swim directly infront of one of my adult Julidochromis and was not bothered in the slightest by him. Adult cyps were swimming nearby and didn't seem to be interested either.
I'll have to go back to earlier in this thread to figure out what the order was on dibs for fry ... but I remember who was first.

I've netted out three thus far:


You can see one of the holding 6 females at the bottom of this pic:
