In another thread, I posted that I found an unexpected bristlenose pl*co fry in my tank yesterday. Today I found a few more, at least seven in there, probably more that I haven't seen due to the mass of plants on my tank! I may try to catch one for some super macro photos if I have time. Here are a few picture of the fry:
This guy is hanging out in the backside of a powerhead
The plant in this photo is a dwarf sag, just to give you an idea of size. It is cool to watch their hearts beating and the blood flowing.
Through eighteen inches of water, on the backside of the tank
===================================================================
Update as of today.
While cleaning the fry's setup, I thought I would snap a few new photos. They are all growing so much, and they all look great! No new sightings of any others, so I am guessing this is the full haul.
I was having a hard time with this pic, holding the Gladware to get them all in the corner so they would all be in one picture.
Nice lineup!
Close-up!

Thought I would post some new photos of a few bristlenose fry (can I call them that anymore?) They are growing slowly, but they seem to be fat and happy. I am keeping my fingers crossed that the male is on another set of eggs right now.
