| Well, they did pretty good, but I had no plans on breeding them. When I first saw them there were only around ten fry. Two days later I was taking filter media out to seed a small 1 gallon tank to keep some ghost shrimp in. I was looking in the 1 gallon and noticed a tiny fish swimming around, I looked closer and realized it was one of the fry. It got there on the piece of filter media I used to seed the tank, I looked into my filter n the tank with the Kribs and pulled out the media and in the bottom, there where all these fry swimming around. I emptied it in to a bowl and used a turkey baster to put them back in the tank, a few at a time near the bottom of the tank with the parents. I still have some of them and have found homes for the others. I keep the male and females in different tanks, since I have no space for more fish. _________________  |

| Nice...It's always great to have fish you have bred yourself. It is such an accomplishment. |
