Thumbs up Baby Cardinal Fish

I came home one day and thought I had a fly in the top of my tank....come to find out the fly(baby cardinal) was swimming around. I notice one of the parents mouth was really big. He/She was protecting the babies.

Babies!!!

Better pics below

Babies

I have 16 netted and one swimming as it pleases in the main tank.

Little BB's with fins!

cool stuff ,
I saw a post just the other day here on 3reef that said they have been placed on a red list .
Just goes to show that even hobbiests can breed these little marvels so why are they not being mass breed to supply the aquarium industrys?
(im sure the are being mass breed already but you get my drift)

I am not planning on keeping any of them. My tank is pretty maxed as it is. I do not know how fast they will grow.? Or..How long to wait before I can transfer them somewhere else?

Anyone have any ideas?

I am feeding them baby brine food. They love it!



Thanks,
Zak

Well the 50% statement is pretty much true. I am down to 8 healthy little guys in my separate breeder cage and 1 swimming freely in my tank.
