Wow. Congrats on that. I keep thinking of it. I had a pair of mated Cinnamon,s that I gave a friend and we had a go at one of those batches. He had a good small set up for them and fed them baby food he had purchased someplace. They were actually doing pretty well until one of his dogs when in for a look, {by himself}, and accidentally unplugged the little tank. Needless to say they never lasted long enough for him to notice in time.

Dont have the room to really do it now. I did when I had my house and the 225g tank and fish room.

The again, what the heck would I do with the young. Certainly not enough market here for them.

I do believe one of our BC members does raise young successfully as I can remember seeing his threads.
