Finally, my Orange Lasers are spawning as this writing.
Some of you know that I had those guys fat and big since last Fall. And see them frantically swim up and down against the front glass for many times.
I had one old thread about them wondering what I need to make them spawn.,etc. And after a while, I kind of gave up and figure they may spawn someday. And I got into some other parenting fish like BN/Albino BristleNose and Angels. I have a pair of Angels with like 200+ frys right now(too many to count).
And I guess they finally gave in.
Hopefully at least some eggs hatch and hopefully the frys are easy like Melano to raise.
I don't know how many eggs there will be as they are still making them. And I don't disturb them too much. But it looks like the eggs are pretty big about the size of Panda eggs. And they are nice snow white at the moment. And they seem to prefer to place on the plants. I think I need to put more plants.
I have them in 10G with powerhead with sponge unheated tank which I think hover around 68~72F and I haven't test the Ph for a while but around 7 and get at least weekly 50% water change. I don't know the hardness either since I don't have no testing or measuring device.
Sorry, no pictures as I still have only crappy comp and camera.
Anyway, I figure I GOT TO tell someone about the great news(at least for me). I've been waiting for this for like 6 months.
