Regular Member shellbell4ever Posted September 20, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted September 20, 2013 So I had moved some of the plants from my big tank into this tall container a week or so ago and I was going to free cycle them but hadn't gotten around to posting it yet, it's just sitting on my kitchen table kind of like a center piece some wisteria,dwarf onion and a lonely banana plant that the goldfish Kept up rooting and I got sick of putting it back...anywho I'm sitting at the table having dinner in hubby's seat because he's working late and I see something move out of the corner of my eye I figured it was a baby spider on the outside of the container NOPE it's fry about a half dozen or so :) I'm so excited as soon as I get the ok on Max they will go into the new 20L but until then they will go into the Styrofoam container I use for my fish when I transport them I can't believe my dumb luck I will try to get some pics but it's a mini jungle and they're just little eye lashes atm but still how cool is that I'm gonna have tele fry :) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Jeana727 Posted September 20, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted September 20, 2013 OMG!!!! CONGRATS!!!! I would be THRILLED to find lil' baby goldies!!! I can't WAIT to see them!!! I was moving around some plants in my tropical tank (guppies & platties) and I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was a baby! Not sure which it is (platty or guppy) it is tinnee eyeballs with a tinnee fin. Then I looked around & found a yellowish one. I'm sure there had been (& might still be) more......but it seems many got eaten !!!!! I refer to them as E B (eyeballs). I'm planning to get more plants so that when more get born they'll have better places to hide!! IF I FOUND GOLDIE BABIES I WOULD BUST!!! The VERY BEST of luck raising your FRY!! PICS!! LOTS O' PICS!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
