Well after lucking into a pair of trifasciata and having them in my 4' community tank I was suprised tonight to find fry. I didnt even suspect eggs (not seeing the mother with any when I fed the tank last night I figure they have been free swimming up to a day). So my main question is growth rate. Considering I have Rams and a couple of types in there that would make a quick meal of them given a chance how long would it take them to reach a safe size. I dont have a suitable tank to transfer them to so I will be picking a breeding net on tomorrow to transfer them to.
Also any other tips on trifasciata fry would be great.
Thanks in advance
PS here's a few pics not great due to it only being taken from my phone.
Fry can be seen white dots hovering in front of mother
A few fry can be seen as darker dots against the white substrate
Lots of fry on the wood above the mother.
