While checking the fish after turning the lights back on a few hours after I turned them off, I found a 1 cm baby panda swimming along the front glass, this very exciting aand interesting considering I never saw any spawning behavior from the pandas, they do however have a heavly planted tank with a 4 ft piece of sriftwood in there so its not that amazing that I didn't see anything.

What a weird coincidence, ryan finds panda eggs for the first time, when hours later I find a mysterious baby.


here are two pictures I got:

in the first picture those are grains of sand, this makes you realize how small it still is.

I am not exactly sure but I think that its because pandas are social so you buy a bunch of them, for be this is number eleven, that probably increases the chances of them spawning.

Very cool Bud. I am hoping my four eggs get that far... or maybe I missed some eggs and they will hatch out in the tank and live like yours has. I am hoping I will get more eggs soon. I would like to raise more... and I a kinda better educated about raising them. Good luck with him he is awsome!

That one looks as if it's about 6 weeks old by my reckoning.

How about some pics of him now? I bet he is around 9-10 weeks now? Mine is only about 4...he will look like yours in the ppics abouve in a few weeks. I have really enjoyed raising mine...maybe next time yours spawn you can raise some from eggs like I did.
