Corydoras:
About 12-14 albino Corydora fry: ~ 6 from eggs laid on Thanksgiving Day, and 6 from eggs laid 2 days later. Many more eggs were laid, but I didn't plan for this and majority of eggs (85%) succumbed to fungus.
In the pic below, you can distinctly see eyes on 2 of the fry, but not on the 3rd. 3rd fry is from 2nd batch.
Mollies:
Black Sailfin Molly dropped 2 babies that I could see. Either there were more who became breakfast or she did as is typical for her and really only dropped 2. No Photo - they look just like mollies only smaller.
Kuhlii's:
Now this was a real shocker! I lifted up the sponge filter where I first spotted the abovementioned Molly, to see if there were any more under it and this "thing" skittered out from under it. Finally caught it. I am thrilled to announce the addition of a baby Kuhlii to my aquatic menagerie! Parents are the solid brown variety - and came from Petsmart, Petco or possibly even Walmart. I guess they like their environment!
