New batch of BD pups born this afternoon to my larger female WC BD. All pups are approx 4" in diameter with yoke still attached. Pretty sure that they are 2 female / 1 male. Just moved them into my sump...that's amazing with the production so far. It's been 1 year today that my 1m/2f WC's started to produce and as of today they have produced 4 males & 5 females.

Here are some photos taken during transfer from main tank to sump holding tank.

4" Male BD


4" Female BD

Congrats. Way to go. Did you do a large water change after the birth?

nope...I have a drip system which turns over 75-90 gals per 24hours....I just added some prime into the tank. I rarely do large water change...actually I don't recommend it too much as it might change some of the water chemistry in the tank since my pups are in the same system...I just change filter floss and add prime..nothing much else
 
Thanks...took awhile to get going but 9 beautiful pups in 12 months is awesome...looking for more to come..
