Dthm X Hm Spawn Log :)

lilfishie · Oct 16, 2011

well here's the start of my DTHM x HM spawn log! Today we have eggs on the 2nd release they went straight into wrapping :good:

1st release was also a huge sucess with practice wraps and a few eggs which the female munched as the male wasn't picking them up.

Now both Male & Female are placing eggs into the nest and boy is there a fair few :hyper:

anyways heres the pair :good:

Wow! I can not wait to see how this progresses! How do you care for the offspring? I know it takes a huge amount of effort, space and equipment but I only know the vaguest of points. :blush:

Your male is absolutely lovely by the way

thanks

they also take a lot of time and effort requiring daily waterchanges and several feedings of live foods daily, this is my 1st spawn so its all a bit trial and error for now see what works :good:

EDIT!
