A. zolternans babies

Post by Mad Duff » Fri Dec 21, 2007 11:12 am

I have finally managed some photo's of my young zolt's

just over 2cm

With adults

just visible under leaf is a fry that is under 1cm long

There are 4 different sized groups of fry from under 1cm to nearly 3cm and the adults have started spawning again :D

Excellent pics, MD. 8) How many youngsters are there in total?
