con babies
« on: September 18, 2006, 08:17:26 AM »
My baby convicts fish have been
hiding in the same decoration as my spotted rapheals.
They seem to get along.  I think they hide ther for protection.
The rapheals dont seem to mind the babies. ^-^

If the babies are small enough to fit in the ralphs mouth, he WILL eat them.

 ^-^I think i may have the worlds laziest
rapheals,  they always hide in the same decoration
and dont seem to bother the babies, cause the babies
swim in and out.   ::)

They are nocturnal and hunt at night, so don't be surprised if the con babies dissapear over time.

Or maybe the laurel and hardy team are smarter than the average bear(con).
Your right about there probably finding it easier to just sit in there hidaway,
wiat for the meal to come to them!
here is a pictuer where spotted ones spend there night and day.
And this is my stripped one, the first time i've seen him out? O0 :beer:
