No experience with L46 bro. So I don't know the difference.

All 5 of them looking good as of today.

The father on the other hand after I deprive him of his duties went on to get himself busy again with another female.

Pic taken yesterday a day just after I poured out all the fries. Pardon me for the not so clear pic, there is definitely another pc ( after a headcount ) deep inside blocked by the big male.

Looking good! Hatched already one big hurdle cleared. Do you DIY..... your egg tumbler?

Saw the eggs in a ta bao plastic box.

Yup, DIY ta bao box. Used to keep my 144 fries.

Not actually a tumbler when I did it, but ended up able to perform like a tumbler.

So far due to my not up to standard skills in fry management. All were wiped out from the previous spawns. Never made pass 1 week stage.

I poured out the latest spawn ( +/- 3weeks ago ) and never looked back.
Found a few still surviving as of yesterday.

Bro i tink is best to let the father do the job.
My experience is the same as yrs.

I think its better to remove them only if you have the time to keep and eye on them. If not, most fries survive well in a single species tank together with the adults.
