Thanks for the compliments. :D

In total I've had about 60-70 in six months, spawning approx once a month. About 15 or so haven't made it this far and the rest range in size from 0.5" to 1.25" approx.

They stopped in November last year as I've moved house and spawned for the first time again last week, to my relief :D

8 in total, 2 have bred pretty much constantly, another 2 I think have participated occasionally and the other 4 are just voyeurs lol :D

Hi Smithrc

If you think it might be helpful then go for it...12 out of 14 is certainly a downer. PS. If ever you want to head over and have look at the set-up or talk in person feel free...I'm only like 45 minutes away.I can't promise how helpful it might be but you never know lol...

Thanks for the compliments DB. :D

:P Wow! It must be a great feeling to have so many of those little cirtters in your tank. Looks like you have done a VERY good job raising up your spawns.

congrats on your success pm, do you think that bare bottom is the best way to go . i ask this because i know you had problems with sand, do you think sand was the problem or was it something else. did you come to a conclusion.
