Baby Kribensis - 1 Month On

The baby Kribensis turn one month old today!

The babies are happy, healthy and fending for themselves.

Mum and dad kribensis were relocated to another tank recently, so they can prepare themselves for a new batch of fry, leaving the babies to their own devices. At first it was a big shock to the babies but now they cruise the tank in smaller clutches rather than the previous group formation their parents kept them in.

They are around 6mm in size, compared to 2mm when they first appeared in the tank. Their diet consists of finely crushed flakes, hard boiled egg yolk, baby brine shrimp, micro worms, algae wavers and vegetables.
