Over run with bn plecs but don't want to re home them

[marne2]

My trio have been producing eggs twice a month, some have survived and a lot have not but I now have quite a few babies ranging from 1cm to 2 inches, they are so pretty ( most long fin ). I keep thinking I should advertise them on a fb group but I'm worried that they won't go to good homes , maybe it's time to get another tank .

Marne. I had a fantastic bedding pair and i had 100s of little ones. I had to give them away in the end. Then i had a disease in my tank and all but one female died. I now have a new male and he shows no interest in my girl!

Oh i just saw you have long fins. Where are you roughly? I have a female long fin, would love a few more!

Get another tank then I can home one if you're anywhere near Cambs.

Ohjesus, im in Dorset, my male is a long fin and most of the babies seem to be too, I have people interested in buying some but I'm worried they won't look after them ( one of them gets through so many fish as they don't clean their tank enough ).

I think I have around 20 that are a decent size and the male has just kicked out a load more due to another female laying in his cave.

Your 3hrs away :(

It is a worry sending your baby fish off to people that might not look after them.
My female has got all fat around the middle so hopefully she can get my grumpy new male to look after these eggs. He does not seem in the slightest bit interested!
