Just 9 days after the new setup I noticed some movement behind the fake wall. First I thought they were some parasites or something. But it was the smallest fry I've ever seen and there were a lot of them.

Did you notice I mentioned several times in the article that the fry are tiny? That’s because they are the smallest fry I’ve ever seen in my thirty-four years of fishkeeping! It kept me up at night for several days thinking about how in the world I would grow out such tiny fry.

Can definately relate to that, had to rub my eyes a few times. The good thing is they are separated from the rest of the fish so feeding them will be easy. The bad thing is how the hell will I get them out from there. Wish them luck and me too

Here's hoping they decide to get out themselves to explore the wide open spaces.

(once they get a little bigger!)

Pics please.

As requested I wish them luck and to you as well.

Congratulations Janma , you are doing things well, you are even getting lots of them, so you and them will do just fine. ... I´ll buy some off you in late spring. And you obviousley have good eye-sight too ...

Pics would be nice yes, but don't think my camera can focus on anything this small. I'll try, good reason to buy a new camera

Congratulations!!
That certainly didn't take long. They must really like the new home.

great news janne, i wouldn't worry about the fry where there's a will there's a way, the little buggers will be out and about in no time.

Congratulations - they are obviously enjoying themselves in their new tank!

Wow! very cool, Janne. Looks like a lot of them. Must be the romance of the waterfall.
