The babies are very cute.

Hi

I've got five adults two of which are proven males.

I'm unsure how many females I have and whether the same female is mating with the two males. only time will tell.

they spawn regualrly but this is the first time I've manged to capture the babies before the adults have a FRY up.

I'll you all posted on their progress.

I didn't realise they could be cannibalistic! Obviously doing summat right - well done!

When I said Adults I meant the rest of the tank occuapnts, Clown Fish Regal Tang, Dwarf Lion Fish, Shoal of Chromis, Shoal of Anthias, Etc.

unlike their freashwater counterparts bangais dont care for their young after release and they are left to fend for themselves.

Hi john

My apologies I should have made things clearer in my original post but I suffer from a rare disorder called "Polaroids" which in laymans terms means I'm a late developer.

That is fab! I really would like to breed these in the future. What is your secret? What is your tank spec? Thanks
