they watched over and fanned the nest but someone ate the eggs overnight, i suspect the blue gourami's did it. lets see where can i put the next tank..........

doing my weekly cleaning found my pair of Apistogramma cacatuoides guarding about 50 eggs in a flowerpot!!!!!  i guess i should be more careful playing barry white music around my aquariums.

very cool and congrats

We did a few good freshwater spawns but all common guys like the convicts etc.  I have not had a student interested in freshwater fish in a couple years.  I sort of miss seeing them and the cool environments that can be made to match their native habs

I think i will be setting up a few species tanks to increase the chance of survival of the eggs.  ai think a 20 long will work with 29 to grow out the fry.
