Well things have been a little mad for a few weeks!
I have had 4 batches of eggs in the past few months. The first born on 6th October.
Out of 25 eggs in the first batch 10 have made it and are now in my main tank until my lfs has room/ or i get another tank
Second batch came about 2-3 weeks later same about 10 survived out of 20 eggs. And again are in my main tank.
Third and 4th batch came over 2 days from 2 different females, and are in my fry tank. I think there is about 30 of these.
And on friday night when i was watching my fish i saw them starting at it again. On friday night i got about 150 eggs. This morning my other female has started and i have managed to get about 100. I've now given up taking eggs out as i just wouldnt have the room.
I have done nothing in encourage them to spawn, so im guessing they must be happy!
Here's the parents...
