That's good news Hamish, here's hoping that something comes of it
.
Hmmmm, there definitely seems to something in the highlands water. I would be interested in knowing the parameters of your water:Ph,Kh,Gh etc. You guys seem to manage on just aged water alone, looks like I'll have to sell up soon and move to scotland.

i have just looked again, she is out and there are a little bundle of eggs in the cave, im gobs-macked, I've only had her 4 days and she's spawned, tomorrow i buy a new camera so i can show them, has anyone got a suggestion for a good digital camera?

Congrats Hamish, I think you've just set another zebra breeding record
. I'm definately moving up to your neck of the woods now, what are house prices like up your way?

If you're interested in a new digital camera check out this site, they are very good for unbiased reviews.

Excellent news mate. I'm well chuffed for you. Is it a new male, or has he managed a spawn before?
Just remember who you outbid with those ones however.....I'll be expecting a few offspring in exhange to keep the scottish blood lines going!!!
Defninately a record...you must be doing something right!!!

Ha ha ha
Knew I should have stuck to round numbers!!!!
Looks like you could be onto a winner with it. Haver you told the guy you bought them from that she has spawned already. he must be kicking himself.

Still a really good sign. If it was her first spawn it is only to be expected. Was it the same male as before?
