As was mentioned to your log submission, before it was deleted yesterday, you really need to look at some of the other diaries and logs from the last two weeks. That has been mentioned a couple of times. Checking topics like pregnancy and fry in the Quicklinks can be useful too. While you are looking for gestation periods, you will learn a lot of the other things useful in raising fry.

That your Dad is an experienced aquarist, is also a terrific advantage for you. Most dads are thrilled when their daughters (or sons) express an interest in something which is also one of their hobbies. So you have a wonderful resource in him.

Some of my fondest memories with my son and daughter are of baseballs and softballs being thrown back and forth in the street. We also had fun messing around in the fish room. They were picking killifish eggs (the large lineatus/ golden wonder eggs) before they were three. They were also gently catching stuff, by hand, which we would enter in shows, when they were an elderly 4 or 5. :)
