About three weeks ago I tore down a tank preparing for my move, and I combined it into three other tanks, putting my female BN into my 55. I was doing a water change and lo and behold I had about twenty 11 mm BN fry all over my filter intake! Bad time though as I am moving 3hhours away in about a week and a half

The fry may be tougher than you think... I'd just bag them separately from everyone else when you move.

How exciting! I want BN fry!

Goodluck with your BN fry. I hope that you'll try to raise them.

I managed to get 7 of them out into my ten so far-just too many things that might eat them in the 55. I know believe BN fry are the hardest fish to catch-kuhlis coming a close second. I hope they survive the move-I'll see if I can get some pics.

Wow, congratulations! Good luck with them I wish I had BN fry... yes, the yound plecos at the pet store are among the hardest fish to catch that I have had to catch at the store... though zebra danios may come in second, I haven't ever had to catch a kuhli...

Between getting ready for the move, and the poor close up settings of my camera, I finally got a pic! http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2004-7/793410/BNfry.jpg
