Decisions....

I had a pair of Cacatuoides in my 10G tank which had babies. (mother died after a month and then I bought another adult female)
I have counted about 14 babies and they're now about 1" long, about 2 month old. I recently acquired another 10G tank. Should I move the 2 adults to the new tank or move all the babies to the new tank? I think the adults wants to breed as they do the fish dance with each other

Moving Fry

Dear Ming,

It might be easier to move the adults and leave the fry where they are. If the adults are courting, they will spawn in the new tank just as easily as in the old one.

Good luck!
