Posted	KRIBENSIS FRY
27-07-2006 22:27 by Lexter	My Kribensis fry are about 5-weeks old now. If i didnt know any different i would think they were corydoras fry. They seem to spend 100% of the time on the bottom of the tank (which is plain glass) nibbling for left over food!!! Seem fine, just looks bizaare!!!
27-07-2006 22:29 by rob r	send some up im hungry
27-07-2006 22:30 by Lexter	as much as i love you Roberto, cant afford to let this thread run wild, lets ruin someone else's thread yeh, not mine please
27-07-2006 22:35 by rob r	i wasnt kidding but ive found some chicken so ill sit quietly
28-07-2006 00:22 by Danny Boy	typical of kribs, they always stay at the bottom of the tank foraging.
28-07-2006 08:16 by heros hero	Are the parents with them lexter?
28-07-2006 10:04 by Lexter	no mate, i took the fry out almost as soon as they were free swimming coz the male (father) was going beserk in my community tank!!!!! The fry are now in a 18" tank with guppy and platy fry
28-07-2006 11:10 by jonie	how big are your fry then and can i split a rio 180 into three so i can have 3 pairs?
28-07-2006 19:14 by heros hero	How are the adults behaving now my man?
28-07-2006 21:46 by Lexter	Hey Heros Hero Parents are with other Kribs in a 3 footer now, behaving normal, waiting them to breed again, love these Kribs, minie do not breed easy!!!
28-07-2006 22:28 by heros hero	How do the paired kribs interact with the other kribs?How much territory do they claim when they want to spawn?Is the male loyal to the female or sniffing around other females? Sorry for the multi questions chap but when your threads get left as fish related you always have quality info.Keep it up conman or are you now kribman!
28-07-2006 22:37 by Lexter	Thank Mate, i know what you mean about the posts pal Right, my Male Kribs always fought each other from oppostie ends of tank, they both paired up, and left the 5th Krib (female to go it alone). HOWEVER since i moved all the Kribs out of Rio 180 community into 3 footer with just Kribs and Brichardi young, one of the male Kribs died (yesterday - am gutted), now the lone male is getting all the attention from all the females!!! is funny to watch BUT in reponse the your question, usually both males stayed loyal to one female HEROS, my theory is that now there is one male breeding will be easier, i think in the past the big male (who died) would always riun it for everyone with his aggression Thanks for your comments, i do try and leave good fish posts, but because i like a larf my dicisples always come on to my threads with humour and i fear it scares the "knowledgeable peeps" away.
28-07-2006 22:52 by jonie	well conman or kribman
28-07-2006 23:05 by heros hero	Lex,you have kribs in with brichardi?What are you like!Gotta love those lamprologus,fantastic looking fish but mental when breeding.Get yourself some hemichromis of any kind and you've got the trio of nutter africans!Missed whether you've said what you're keeping now,do you have yourself an african lake set up now?What's happened to the cons?
28-07-2006 23:32 by Lexter	Hey Heros I knnow its crazy but i ran out space Rio 180L Community Livebeaer, heavily planted 3x18x12 Convicts x 8, Brichardi x4 (breeding group!!!!) and Juli Marlari x2 I KNOW CARAZY set up, tried to sell the Brichardi and Marlari but no good offers, is an entertaining tank to say the least 3x18x12 Kribensis, 5 adults, 12 xBrichardi young (1 inch) and 1x marleri young (1 inch) and 1 small femnale convict AGAION unusual set-up, but ITS WORKING FINE at moment 36x15x12 2 x breeding convcit pairs, seperated by divider, 2 x small fry tanks
28-07-2006 23:48 by heros hero	Fair play to ya fella,half the fun is seeing how fish that wouldn't naturally meet each other actually interact.Keep up the good work chap but maybe there should be more severum and less convict!!!
28-07-2006 23:53 by Lexter	i know what you mean fella, love them severums, stay in touch pal ajones2703@hotmail.com
