Thanks so much. Newest batch should be hatching in 2 or 3 days! Have 98 juvies now.

Just need them to grow up some. Oldest batch is about 2.5 inches now.

I hope these photos of the adult male with measuring tape help (cm showing)... for the E and K measurements.

Thanks Jools!

I found a tip from someone that breeds shrimp that seems to help maintain good biofilm growth tor fry to graze on.

Eric - does it need to be male or female?

Does this help to see scales on the back?

Female's face then male guarding eggs.

He has only small bristles on his snout, none on side of head.

Once hatched and alive for a few hours, I have no losses. Currently raising 98 in two batches. Found a way to keep food in front of them 24/7 and the water clean. They must eat non-stop to not starve.

A few more photos. Still looking for flared tail photo!

I am searching my photos for the other angles of the adults' bodies requested. They are in pre-spawning mode so I don't want to take photos today of them.

Here is one that shows a group of the 8 week old fry (with one from prior spawning that snuck in with a plant to graze on).

I've had great success breeding a Farlowella species and will begin selling their offspring.

Can anyone confirm the correct species? In viewing photos, I am thinking Farlowella vittata.

Please let me know if different pics would help.

Thanks!
