And they are cute as buttons, too. Nice work.
What makes the common person uncommon is common sense.

Well done!!! Once they get going there is no stopping them. What's your plans for the fry? (we have about 200 here as we speak!)

Well i probably keep a few and sell off the rest, since there are no more or little hypancistrus imports selling shouldn't be that difficult.
Only thing in between is tankspace to grow them out to a descent sellable size.

Yup. Ours reach 1 1/2 inch in 6-8 months in the 250 lit tank with the adult colony and massive water changes. More space though will favour growth. The only good thing is that they are pretty tough.
