I was just getting ready to move my trets, daffolils, moorii, and meeli from their existing tank into the new 125 gallon this weekend. My daughter was looking at them last night and pointed out a baby fish. I bent down and with my face just about smashed to the glass to see that I have about a hundred little fish the size of fleas all over! Then I realize all of my fish other fish are huddled against the back of the tank, and those meelis parents won't let anyone make a move. Leave it to the evil shell dwellers to rule the tank!! They've always been very aggressive, attacking my hand, the glass cleaner, etc. but now they're crazy. This is going to delay my plan a bit. Hmmmmmm
So I'm thinking I'm still going to move everyone out this weekend into the 125 with exception of the fry. I'll feed the fry well and hopefully get them to about guppy fry size quickly so I can net them out into a 10 gallon. I'd like to get other fish moved into that 75 gallon they're in. Any idea how fast these grow??? My brevis fry have grown quickly, so I'm hoping the meeli will be more like that. My calvus fry on the other hand couldn't grow more slowly!
