Lil ole update
EEL---
Im thimking the same with the males. I managed to get another female and the fwmale i had in between the two males has paired with another male. YAY!!! took them a few days bit when i finally put the fwmale and male togethwr the male rocked the female for a couple days ad finally let up. They are now swimming together and he wont leave her side. But im thinking the female moght be infertile since she has shown no signs of courting. Im hoping thw other female i got is fertile.
The fry are getting bigger and now eating flakes. This would be week 2 i think. Im now down to just 10 fry. All the eggs that hatched didnt make it passed a day of free swim. Seems like they are spawnong more but the hatching of eggs is decreasing. Ive now let each pair spawn atleast 3 times with no luck on good parenting so ive resorted to artifical raising. Not muh success either. Seems like the males are getting more and more infertile. One thin i notice is they wont spawn in a community tank but do need tank mates to spawn.
So out of eoughly 2k in eggs i omly have 10 that have made it! Lol i call tem super nemo!
