Re: the nervous father awaits his new babies

Congradulations on getting your new babies. First off, you need to closely watch them at first. In a tank that small there will most likely be some conflict. Hopefully you can get ahold of a male and female. A fifty gallon tank is pushing it, with regaurds to space.
Since they will be the only fish you will have in there, they should be out and about.
My BSJF never goes into his burrow except at night. He is the king of the tank.
I will be putting my current BSJF in my 240 gallon tank, along with another. Even with so much space, I am still worried about territorial issues.
Just be sure to kkeep the stress low on these fish. Stress is a main culprit with the demise of these fish.
Good-Luck ~Michael
