There are very real advantages to small numbers of fry = less pollution, more natural infusorians to go around.
Very cool to get this far - if nothing else, you have a proven pair.

lol I am running out of space. They are in a very small tank of their own so I can acyually see them. It makes it easy to find the food for them and they are getting 2 x 80/90% water changes per day. Fed twice daily as well.

I used to breed angle fish alot a while back. I have a long piece of rigid pipe that is small enough to fit inside regular airline tubing. Start the syphon off and be careful!!
I was used to doing it and watching 200+ angle fry so 3 suvattii that like mother and father - do not move much, its not so hard.
