3rd Generation Endler Frys!!!!

When I woke up today, I took a quick look at the temporary tank that I've setup for the endlers (1 male and 1 female) and found little slithers that zipped by real fast. Much to my pleasure, they are endler frys ... yes, these are the 3rd generation endler frys!!! YES!!! I've finally made it in breeding endlers!!! I've counted 10 frys altogether.

In fear of the frys suffering issues in the temporary tank, I've moved 8 of them over to the re-scaped tank (the last two is kind of hard to catch). Hopefully, some of these will grow up to be peacock snake endlers to even out the population of the tank that is currently fully dominated by the red chested endlers.

Re-scaped Tank

Bingo!! I re-scaped my planted tank. Here's how it looks like now ... nice, huh? I have not found time to update this blog in the past few weeks as I've been busy engaging and extending on this hobby ... now into planted aquaria. As you can see, there is a variety of plants in the nano tank i.e. riccia, spiky moss, Christmas moss, green rotala, luwigia arcuata, narrow leaf java fern, subwassertang and a few other small plants that I do not have a name to. :)

As you can see, it is a big leap from my previous tank setups and this will hopefully be able to cultivate a good growth for the RCS. For those of you who have been following this blog ... I know ... I wanted the RCS initially as a cleanup crew but have lately grown an interest in breeding them as well. Don't worry, I have not given up on my endler dreams but have merely diversified into RCS.

I'm currently also aiming to get rid of most of the fishes in the big tank to convert it into a bigger endler tank while the smaller nano cube tank will be mainly for RCS and boraras ... :) I think they are the only fishes that can co-exist with the RCS ...
