1000 Albino Adonis eggs

[Recumbent]

When I was digging out the last of my 5 Albino Adonis out for their new owner about 1000 eggs was in the cave with it. I was quite surprised. They fell into my landing net when I shook him/her out of a 18" pleco cave. I bunch fell through the net but I saved some. I don't expect any to survive with the rough handling they got and they may not even have been fertilized since I don't see any development (or they were just laid). I put some in egg tumblers just to see what happens (WAY more eggs than they were designed for). It would be nice to have a few develop and see if they would all be Albino.

OMG. Keeping fingers crossed that you have some luck. Please keep us posted.

I'll be watching to see if you got some wigglers.

Wigglers have started!

I divided the wigglers into 2 tanks with a couple hundred each (impossible to count). Growing a little every day. They like to cluster in the top corner or 2 of the tank like a swarm of bees (where I can't get a picture of them). Also the ones floating around quickly latch onto your arm when it is in the tank like a bunch of mosquitoes that you have to shake off.

That's so cool. What are you gonna do with all the fry once grown

Starting to get some poop streamers so I guess I need to start feeding them.

A small group in a corner that I can get at.
