| I apparently need to thin down my neo brichardi to 1-2 pairs. They are in a planted 75g now and I did a severe tank re-do because there was duck weed taking over in there. Since I did that I have found 4 on the floor, not good. So I plan on pulling out a pair and putting them in a 20g long and selling off the rest. I will probably keep the reg/albino pair as they have always produced very well. I am also working on pairing 2 albinos so once they pair they will get a 20g long as well. So now my issue is who gets the planted 75g? It needs to be planted because of the substrate and the fact that its next to an open window. https://usafishbox.forumotion.com/user-stock-list-f38/sl-fern-stock-list-t3453.htm That's my stock list. The sp44 could go in there or I could toss moorii fry in there or.............. I'm pretty much at a loss of who to move! |

| They are all about the same level of aggression. I wouldn't want to mix all of them pretty much the lelupis and something....Probably the sp44 or mchengas. I have moorii fry in my sump so they grow quick in there......... Unless my friend has some Victorian fry close to ready for me than I may just leave it empty for them........... |

| Its not the aggression I'm worried about its the sorting I will have to do later, the lelupis look way different than any of them even as fry, but the others look quite similar. |

| Yup, that's why I hardly ever mix fry unless they look very different! |

| You saw how big the moorii in my planted sump are, I think I shall just keep tossing the moorii fry in there, they do quite well in there. |

| Mike, if Jako's friend doesn't buy them all I will sell you the rest.
Looks like I may be getting some rare Victorians, if that happens I will put them in the 75g. Its going to be interesting trying to get all of the fry out of that tank.....I know I will end up missing a lot of them....... |

| The ones that get missed will either end up being eaten by the next tank occupants or caught if they grow in there later. |

| 7 for now, I will be trying to get 4 more if all goes well. If they end up needing a larger tank I'm getting a 120g long this weekend and will be building another massive planted sump for that tank and a few others. |
