Hi everyone,
The alfa male has moved caves again and within 2 days has trapped and spawned with one of the females, it now looks like in the cave right next to him, one of the other males is doing the same, in the photo you can just make out the eggs just below the mouth of the male and the trapped female in the other cave, also some pics of the fry from the last 2 spawns below

Good going Hamish

I think once they start breeding they breed quite regularly, waiting for them to start is the hardest bit.

Well done Hamish that's great news.

Like Andrew C says they should be fairly regular from here on. Are the fry in the same tank as the adults?
