| MM is a betta Gramma again! Hey MM! I have been holding back on posting this with all the bad stuff that has been going on, I didn't want to cheer prematurely...but we have FRIES! They are almost 2 weeks old now! There are about 150 of them from Apollo and Big Mama..the multi male and female, and 50-100 from the salmandar male and the green female..I cleaned out the 38 gallon tank, filled it with a BUNCH of live moss and such, and they have all been growinglike crazy in there. Right now it only has about 5 inches of water in it, but I have been adding a gallon of RO water a day and they seem great! As soon as they are big enough to see in all the moss, I will get some pics! I wonder what the odds are I will have anything ready to show by convention?? |

| Not to sound snarky, but if you're planning on selling these, I suggest picking up a good camera to take quality pictures with.  |

| Congrats! You may have something to show by convention if you feed them good....
Did you get a breeding with the salamander maleXsib sister yet? |

| no she was not impressed with the idea of being with a male yet..that is the reason I went with the green female. I also had Mimic in with the aquabid female...they spawned beautifully, but the eggs got eaten...I figured I will try him with the salamandar female in a few weeks...he is turning into such a BEAUTY! |
