LOL good to see the old 2 footer being used again! congrats on the spawn mate, those little long fin BN's gonna have the time of their lives with all uneaten food to eat.

[Mattzilla]

there's not much uneaten food though!!!! they are eating machines

[Barracuda]

Cool! How old are the fry now?

[Mattzilla]

hmmm probably about 3 weeks old i guess...

ok so tonight we decieded to move the angel spawn to a bigger tank becuase the standerd 2fter was looking a little crowded.

It took five bucket loads of babies to transfer them.
each bucket i took a photo of from above and once all fish where transfered we did an official head count.....

the results are in....

hold on to your seats....

drum roll please......

here are the count photos for those who would like to confirm the count.... hahahahha (have fun, it will take you a while). each fish should have a red dot meaning it was counted
