Electra vs cuckoo

Post by firenzenz »

Hi There

I'm always checking in and learning lots.
This time at least I have something to share.

Cheers!


Electra Vs Cuckoo update


this was footage shot a couple of weeks ago- excuse that it is upside down. I can't seem to rightside it. It was shot on phone nd I don't know how to rotate it.

Stripped the electra female today and have about 8 of these little guys.
The smaller fry are the electras. All are now in fry trap.

Awesome news mate! :thumbsup:
How many adults you got in there? Great to see someone spawning them back home!

Cheers, Jake.

That's amazing footage (even though it's upside down!). Good luck with raising them. :thumbsup:

There's a very good freeware program called Faststone Image Viewer that can do that and all sorts of other things. I couldn't live without it. You can download the latest version, 3.9, here:

Don't think FastStone will convert MPEG, but it's a good tool - I use IrfanView which is a similar product.
