Andy,

Well done with the latest spawn. You must have quite a few youngsters on the go now.

Can't wait to get mine from you. Do you have any photo's of the youngsters as they are now?

Regards

Nice spawn. If that fm ever wants a vacation in the states, I would be happy to put her up for a while. Maybe she could teach mine how to make more eggs :lol:

Congrats on the plethora of spawns! Pretty amazing!

Do you happen to know your water paramaters? Like your pH, TDS, GH/KH, temp, no3/no4, etc? Would like to see what your sitting at if you don't mind.
