Only had them one week, and whala! Hard to capture the fry in the photo, I am guessing somewhere between 70-90.

An interesting thing about these Curipera's. As it turns out they were not purebred wilds as they were marketed, but they were an F1 cross with a golden variety. As the golden gene is recessive, this was hidden in the parent fish. However, when you cross two fish, each with a hidden reccessive gene, you get 25% of the offspring with both reccesive genes, thus I also have some goldens in this batch of juveniles.

Still good-lookin' babies nonetheless. The shape looks flawless. What are you feeding them? That's a good growth rate for 9 weeks.
