Blue Rams

Well, As of a week ago I got some neon tetras...

And as of 4 days ago I got a pair of Blue Rams!

and the best part...

THEY LAID EGGS!
:dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:

The laid eggs in one side of the tank, and then I thought that they dissapeard. I thought that the mom had eaten them, but it turns out that that she just moved them

You can see the two differnt locations in the pics...

And the even better part is that the eggs are devloping. They appear to be "vibrating." I can also see a few "jumping" like little jumping beans. lol. My boyfriend says that he can see tiny fish bodies.. but I cant see it... lol.
Ill keep updating the frys progress through this thread.. So keep checking back!

Just a pic I took that I like.. thought I'd post it up.
You can see the new leaves on the anubias that just came up, and there is another that is starting to form also, the glosso seems to be doing quite well, although I do need to get my hand in the tank and push some back down, but I think im gonna wait, I dont wan't to stress out the rams fry

FREE SWIMMERS!

I took out all the neons and threw them in my 75gal. Now the Rams have the whole tank to raise their fry with no worries.. Well, there are some amano shrimp in there, but thats it... lol

You can see that they are now free swimming! whooo hoo!! They are developing great!!! :clap:
