So my buddy has a small (around 150 gallons) pond in his backyard, and the two black bullheads in there spawned recently! He just noticed the fry yesterday and offered me some, so I netted about 15 of them. They are only maybe 3/4" long at this point and seem to be doing good in my refugium (even though its only been a day lol)...

Here they are right before I put them in my tank. Those are medium Hikari pellets I put in there just for size comparison...




And here they are in the refugium...




Sorry the pics aren't that great, my phone does horrible with anything moving. I also got some short videos....

I may consider getting rid of some, so if anyone in the area (Denver) is interested, let me know!

Cute! I love them when they are this size.

I have 4 yellow Bullheads about 1.5" right now and am growing them out for myself and other MFK'r.

What you are feeding yours?

So far I've just fed them brine shrimp, but once they get a little bigger I will add bloodworms and prepared foods.
