Here's the latest pics of the wee fella, Titch :roll: . He's coming along really well now being 5 weeks old. He hasn't grow too much in length but he is bulking up, taking more the form of the zebra. He eats well, small portions 4-5 times a day. Anyways, enough of the ramblings and here's the couple of pic's, more to follow once I get to grips with this new camera and lenses.

Hi Dr. P,

Very nice pics. What camera have you bought ?.
Titch is looking really good. What are you feeding him on?.
Inspite of trying different foods, my 3 fry are not bulking out and am a bit concerned. Mine are about 3 weeks old, but feeding for just over 1 week. Did you find this too ?.

Regards,
Des.

Hiya Des,

It's a Kodak DX4530. Here's a link.

I'm feeding Titch on baby brine shrimp and daphnia but mostly on crushed tetra prima & king british flake. He wasn't too into feeding at the very start (I took him from his cave once the egg sack was gone) but is eating well now. I'm keeping on the water changes so I can feed a little more than I should and there is a lot of current running through the breeding trap. I also added a couple of snails to the trap to clean up after the wee guy and eventually act as a sorce of live food. My tank is absolutely riddled with snails, a few different types and my Zebras just love them.

Titch is looking great Dr P, he has definately filled out quite a bit. Are you sure you're not slipping him an occasional bit of haggis? :lol: Very nice pictures by the way :wink: .
