Yeah, just my luck!!!:flame:
Not what I want to be doing at 130am! Lol
He's HUGE! I either bought him already carrying these guys, or they were mating the other night when I posted that video of them together. Why do all my fish feel the need to spawn right now?!?!?! Don't they know that I just moved and don't have fry tanks ready?

Hopefully my local breeder that told me she would take my babies when they came will get back to me in time. I'm going to call the aquarium near me tomorrow. I know the owner and the man in charge of the captive breeding program, hopefully someone can help me out. I'm definitely not ready to even attempt raising these guys yet, and the last thing I want to do is scoop them out and flush them :sad:

I added a new Yellow Gorgonian tonight. I was from a different tank, but I need to start getting some more colorful things into this one so that my two yellow Kuda's stay yellow. The male hasn't shown much yellow coloring since I found that he was a big prego! The female is a vibrant yellow after the lights are on for a bit. She's not showing too yellow in these posts because the lights had already been off for 2 hours, I just popped them on to get some pics of my little fatty and the new gorgonian. I also got a whole bunch of macro algae. I haven't planted it yet because I have no idea where I want everything.
I'm going to weave my grape caulerpa up through the zip ties, just want it to grow a little longer before I do that.
Sorry that some of the photo's are fuzzy.
Mr. Chubby:
Yellow Gorgonian with the baby hitching. He LOVES this thing!
Ugly FTS, I need to figure out how I'm going to arrange all the macro and what not
Mr. Preggo's

I'm petrified. I'm completely not ready for this and no one has returned my calls. I'm going to end up with a 5G bucket full of these darn things!

I'm sure there will be more....sometimes you just can not save the 1st batch
Oh I know, I just feel bad just sucking them all out and flushing them. I think I'm going to put them in a bucket and race them out to the aquarium and BEG them to take the babies. I'm not sure that this is this pairs first batch. They were paired at the store, and they're from ORA, so who knows. I know I won't be able to raise them, but I was hoping someone else could, but no one wants to come through like they said they would
I honestly don't even know how long he's had them or how long they carry them for. I tried to research a little and everyone said different time frames so I gave up.

LOL. He is quite lrg. My male alway gives me a couple warning babies a day or so early. Then delivers early in the morning. I have never had kuda, but the do require a lot more care then erectus. Hopefully you can get a hold of your breeder, or I know one that may take them as captive bred kuda are kinda rare in this hobby.

I've heard that Kuda's are really hard to rear, and honestly, I want no part of it right now. My breeder was thrilled when she found out that I got my hands on a pair from ORA, and was all excited about me giving her the babies. She needs to check her darn voicemail and email! LOL
He's absolutely huge, can barely swim, it's ridiculous. It's so sad, I found myself yelling at them today that this is uncalled for behavior! LOL Can you tell I'm frustrated?

lol. boys will be boys. and once he has them, he will be prego again in just a few days.
My male always hid in the back of the tank when he was prego. I think I have one of my babies prego right now, but I will not be raising any more for a while. I still have 15 babies as it is.

Update:
I found Mr. Preggers laying on his side dead this weekend. I have no idea at all what happened. He ate before I went to bed, and the next morning didn't come out to eat and I found him on his side, belly deflated. I never saw any effects of babies anywhere, so I'm really not sure what happened, but I'm a little bummed :-(
