PM me if you still have some to get rid of. I would like to get 4 of them.

[Guest]

you should bring some to the frag swap. I still want one.

 

[KarenB]

It would be nice if they were ready by then.

 

[Guest]

KerenB, What kind did you say they were from?

 

[KarenB]

What kind are they?

They are black onyx percula X ocellaris a/k/a "percularis".

I don't know where they originated. The parents are lesd's.

Karen,

The youngsters are looking great!!! ;-)
What are you thinking another 1-2 months before they are ready?

Thanks
Rick

 

[KarenB]

Hopefully. I need to get these guys grown up enough and move them out to make room for subsequent batches.

This last batch seems to be growing really fast. I've got one in there that looks almost Nemo's size already, the little bull dike!!

 

[Rick]

Cool just PM me when they are ready....

Thanks
Rick

I will probably also make a general announcement........plus I'm updating the pics each week for everyone to see, so you'll pretty much know when they're ready to go.

Unless you guys are just tired of me posting the pics, then I'll keep them to myself

And then there were 16............

It appears I've overfed the youngest ones. Two of them had their bellies literally explode, one this morning and another one I just found :dead: It was horrible seeing it. :disappointed: It is so easy to put too many brine in. Doesn't look like that much at all in the net, and then you put it in and there seems like millions. I tried to take some out, but not enough evidently.

Looking great! I would like to know when you get ready to sell them. I have a small yellow and a small marroon and would like to get an orange

 

[KarenB]

The maroon clown would end up wanting to kill one of these little perculas, if you had visions of keeping them all in the same tank.

 

[alstang1]

Shoot me a PM. I may be able to visit you Saturday around noonish.

[KarenB]

You talking to me or the one above?

 

[alstang1]

Joo.... if you are available this weekend for the pickup let me know.

I don't think Karen has seen this yet, but the babies aren't ready to go to homes yet unless you've got a nano set up for them.
