I can't believe these cons had so many fry for a first spawn, that's what happens when you pair an Irish male with an English female, :lmao: Here's a pic of the fry, (some of them)  The fry a little closer. Here's mamma on guard duty.  And pappa doing his fatherly duties.  These are awesome parents for such young fish and first time spawners, you can see more of them in this video if you are interested....... smg.photobucket.com/albums/v107/conaquavict/?action=view¤t=111aaaconfry.flv |

what you feed your babies to your other fish thats cruel why do you do that? What else do you do with 200/300 fry that no body wants? Plus it's nature , fish eat fish in the wild, and at least this way i know what my fish are being fed food that is disease free. |
