I am having a bit of a move around in the fish room and placed my male and two females in a temp tank. Well today I was just checking out if everything is ok as I hadn't seen them around and when I lifted up one of my pots they use "BABIES"

I put the post down immediatly but they are are fully formed and there are LOADS of them! I did concider moving dad and the babies or just the babies but he has done a great job so far so I am going to leave him to it. Do you think I should leave the two girls in there or take them out? I am just so excited..every thim something spawns its such a proud moment

Well done Zeberdy, that's great news . Any idea how many babies you've got?

Zeb,

I'd leave them all to it if I were you

Now that they've started, you'll probably have a spawn every 4-6 weeks if you're lukcy !!

Must be at least 50 if not more. When I lifted the pot us some broke free (15) which I sucked up with my turkey baster and put in a breeding net but the pot was full of them.

, that's one big brood. Looks like both of the females may have spawned.

Well done.

The same thought crossed my mind (both females laying). I have another trio which spawned a month or two ago and there was only half this amount.

congratulations!!

Isn't it amazing how big they get so quick!

congrats

More good news!! Congratulations!!
