The number is a range because I was distracted near the end and lost count. It's a shame too, since this is their biggest one-night egg production yet.
Cheers, Eric

Re: Trachelyichthys exilis spawn :-)
Found more eggs on 2020-09-17, but no time to collect them. Had time to collect eggs today (Sept 19), but no eggs to be found. Other eggs eaten by adults?
On better side, got some nice views of the growing fry.
Cheers, Eric

My largest fry. Starting to get the parental color pattern. And a parent who doesn't know how to hide.

Re: Trachelyichthys exilis spawn :-)
Fry updates: My largest fry, now about 2 months old and 23 mm SL, and a smaller fry about 1.5 month old and 18 mm SL. I don't know the exact age of my oldest fry, but it should be between 7-9 weeks.
I finally started a new fry basket a few weeks ago, so I have another group growing up, away from the mouths of these hungry beasts.
Cheers, Eric

A bit surprisingly, I found my first fry loose in the tank today, and it was a decent size (about 8mm). Up till now, I've never found any fry in the parents' tank; I assume the parents will eat any fry they find.

Re: Trachelyichthys exilis spawn :-)
This one may or may not be my largest, but it's the largest one I could catch. About 3 months old, 28mm SL. Fat because they feasted on live blackworms today... it's a fan favorite with them.
Cheers, Eric

Re: Trachelyichthys exilis spawn :-)
Thanks Jools!
More eggs seen today, and there looked to be a lot, so I took the time to pick out the eggs, and I wasn't disappointed:

- 2020-11-14: 61 eggs Biggest spawn so far!
- (7 day interval since I last inspected, but I haven't inspected for 7 days, so this value is a meaningless value)

Re: Trachelyichthys exilis spawn :-)
From a total of about 20 juvies, here are my three largest . These fish are now approximately 6 months old and 40mm SL. When I bought the parents, the smallest adult was already 45mm SL (largest male, 65mm SL), so I wouldn't be surprised if these juvies are ready to spawn within 2 months or so.
Parents are still spawning, but over the fall and winter the number of bad eggs has gone really high, sometimes 100% of a night's spawn. I wish I knew why. But good spawns are also occurring. Two days ago I collected about 20 good fresh eggs.
Cheers, Eric
And here's a video review of growth to this age:
