After a lot of trial and error and killing hundreds of fry, I have finally managed to get decent survival rates. :D

Nice work! I'm busy killing hundreds of LG 6 fry at present - any words of wisdom for me?

CAN YOU POST TO SYDNEY? I'd love to buy some fry off you once they hit the 5cm mark.

Some advice is to think outside the square. I don't treat the fry like BN/plec fry. Look at the first pic for a clue.

The first lot are about 4cm atm and can ship.

Sorry, call me dumb, but I looked and looked and could see anything. I assume you’re feeding something other than the usual zucchini, spirulina tabs etc., yeah? I found mine wouldn’t touch these but loved microworms and seemed to consume some algae. I was onto the third batch before something wiped most of them out pretty quickly. Water was ok so I guessed it was a pathogen problem.

Greenwater is what I have found to work. I'll try do a write up of how I do it soon.
