German Blue Ram and Australian Desert Goby Fry Update

Posted by Sarah on March 4, 2008

The German Blue Ram and the Australian Desert Goby fry are still doing well.

Jeff thinks he has about 60 Rams, which are still in a 10 gallon tank with a sponge filter.

I have only seen 4 Australian Desert Goby fry at one time, but there is a lot of java moss in the 1 gallon tank with them, so they could be hiding in it.

Three days ago I noticed that some of the goby fry looked like they had little black stripes, like the female adult gobies have, so I was really excited.

This morning Jeff noticed fry in the tank with the adult gobies, so hopefully a few of those will survive as well.

We knew there were eggs in the tank, but since all of the tanks are full right now we decided not to pull the eggs out, since we wouldn’t have any where to raise them.

The funny thing is that these guys looked almost as big as the 15 day old fry!
