The fry of my L129, Hypancistrus debilittera that were kicked out from the cave as larva on the 30th of September are now 10 days old and are doing very well.
There is still the six of them residing in a small floating container. As the breeding box I had planned to use for this type of situations broke recently I'm in the process of building a new one which if it works well will be presented as a DIY post here in the future.
As you can see from the rounded bellies and yellow coloration the fry are still absorbing their yolk sacks, the critical stage in rearing pleco fry starts when they are ready to eat as they need allot of food that easily pollute the water if uneaten.
I'll keep you posted on the progress with these.
