So a few weeks back i bought a set of Kribs..... I want out of town for two weeks on my honeymoon, when i returned i found the female gaurding a clutch of eggs, so i watched them for the next few days. after about 4 day i noticed they were gone and did not see any wigglers anywhere close so i assumed that the eggs did not get fertilized by the male so the female just ate them, which was not a big deal to me, the pair was still young so i figured it would take them a few tries before they got it right. yesterday i noticed the the male out of the corner of my eye chasing off any other fish that came close to their side of the tank so i figured they had layed another clutch of eggs, so i started looking for them but found the female escorting around about 40 little free swimmers. It is pretty neat whatching them, if pne of the little babbies get to far away from the pack the mom or dad will scoop them up in their mouth and spit them back into the pack
i will have to post some pics when i get some
Ive got babbies!
