Ok so i THOUGHT I saw eyes in my mouth brooder libidiochromis Hongi and thought she was ready to strip!!!
I have never done it before but thought I'd give it a go.
My LFS stripped her last time because I didn't want to hurt her as I'd never done it before but they showed me how to do it.
Anyways ......she was acting kinda weird and i swear I said some eyes so I decided to strip her myself ...
Upon doing so the first fry came
Out with a sack attached to it
So the question is, now that I only stripped her of
One fry will
She still carry the rest? Also if they are hatched from the egg but still attached to the yolk how long till they are free swimming ? And ok to strip?
