    Very cool, Jeff. I hope you will share growth progress shots. Do you have them in a special tank or separated from other fish? What is the process? Would love to learn more.

    Cheers,
    BD

    My adults are in a tub outside so I do hatch them in seperate containers. The adults will eat eggs and fry. I hang mops I made from yarn to simulate plants for them to spawn in. After the eggs are laid in the mop I simply remove to another container. It takes 3 days for them to hatch. Then the process of grinding food to a powder for them to eat, regular water changes and hope for the best.
