Gang,

Only 2 months ago I stated in [link=This Thread]http://www.fishprofiles.com/files/forums/Livebearers%20Lane/61676.html" style="COLOR: #ff6633[/link] that I released my baby platies into the main tank. Today I did my water change and while vacuuming over the pygmy chain sword I saw 2 little buggers being sucked up into the wide hose opening. I immediately stopped the water flow and both swam back down into the swords. I wasn’t sure what kind of fish it was as I didn’t have the light on in the tank, but later during refill I saw one again, this time swimming in dangerously open waters. He must have been hiding in the Xmas moss before.

They seem to be no older than a few days and I don’t know if they will survive as I am not going to “safe” them and leave it up to nature (well, not really nature but the tank inhabitants).

Anyway, I can’t believe that I am a grandfather already; I guess I have to remove the “juvenile” from their profile in my fish stock list.

Congrats Little Fish!

I guess technically I am a Great Grand Mother...

I gave my friend some of my Guppy babies who bred in her tank, and I took some of those babies, they grew up in my tank and had babies of their own!!

I think that might be Great Great? mind you it is partly down to my friend as well.

any way whichever its a miracle with my disastrous fish ness lately.

its the best thing about livebearers
