Got a few better shots of my Mbuna Fry.
You can really see the difference from the lab fry and the hybrid fry now. Cute :D





(darker ones are hybrids, yellow ones are the labs ;) )

Those are some great pics, Katie---I love that first one where they're looking at you under their cave. They're really cute!

How old are they, by the way? Are you going to be selling them?

Hehe...I'm up to my eyeballs in all things fish-related at this point, but thanks for the offer. I'm still interested in following along with their journey though, so keep us updated. :)

Well, Katie, you've inspired me to post a few pics of my platy fry and my krib fry. I got some pretty good ones of the kribs! They'll be up soon.

i started feeding them when their yolk sacks were disolved...its like a mixture of cichlid flake, tropical flake, brine shrimp, sprinula flake, and something else...but i just crushed it into a powder.
i plan to keep the best looking hybrids, i dunno what im going to do with the other ones yet lol

They look great, if we could get the 70 gal empty, I'd say I'd take some, but it's not ready to switch to Africans yet.

As for the hybrids... my oscars are always looking for snacks. ;)

LOL I was hoping that woulden't offend you. Really Hybrids make great pets as long as you're sure they will not be bred, wish you could get them 'fixed' LOL. But they do make good feeders if you can't guarentee they won't be bred.
