Very nice fries, can see the color dorsal fin and blue color on the body of the fries even at such young fries.
Nice fries!. |

I once use too much strength on a female lepto with the toothpick that I almost..... her mouth couldn't close fully for a while.. I would try to press a little on the lower back of the female's jaw, so that water will go in from the gill which will flash the fries out from the mouth.. |

For my situation, I've tried both methods with nails and toothpick and somehow toothpick suits me better. Lesser harm was done to the female. To each his own |

The female should have been holding for quiet sometime, looking at the condition of the fries.

btw, guys,
if I were to set up another tank and put both the fries and the parents together, Do you think the adult fish will feed on the fries ? |
