Well, your wish is commin' true! I want to do the best for these nice mikula's! That is the reason i keep in touch with u so much. My tank is almost ready for de mikulas and i can't wait to see them swimming! I just read your whole topic and menn.. i didn't know u already had a third spawn! Great! Hope that they will get as nice as the previous spawns! Like u said is this forum very helpfull so i hope they will help me too with raising the mikula's. Otherwise i'll keep bugging u if i have a question Good luck with this fry and talk to you soon!

Selling juvies for the first time is great but also kind a sad because you might not see them again.
When they go to a forum member that is the best thing that could happen

I really enjoy our little talks.
Glad you joined the forum the more opinions you get the better it is.
Besides that there are members with far more knowledge than me on this forum.

You can see the third bunch of juvies when come to pick up your mikula.
Looking forward to that

indeed! it's gonna be a long day for me when i'm comin to pick up the mikula's

I think i will stay a while @ your place

I miss understood the first time I read this, Feel like sharing that pic ?

We all love pics....lol.
Tough little buggers are they when i come to think of it
One tap water since day one,no salt & no changing the water values.
Then again my wc never had a problem with this treatment either.

Man that's nice. They look like a miniature colony already. How big are they?

Here is a pic of the whole tank.
When the pic was taken they were about 1.5 inch at the most.

Really tried to get him to join this forum.
Still hope he will.
Can't get enough of watching them grow.

Very nice little home for them there

Yeah, it's a shame if he doesn't join. I always meet front keepers in my wheelings and dealings on craigslist, and the first thing I say is "You should check out frontosa.com", I then give them several good reasons, and though some have, Heya guys and girls! Many have not. I think if they know what they are missing out on they would be here in a heartbeat. But you can only try to tell someone so much before they think you're selling something
