some nice pics, do they keep the white on their fins? it looks lovely Very Happy
i would love to have a go at breeding these, would you consider putting a post on what the water conditions are in your tank to get them to breed and how you trigger the spawn? this would be great.

Yes they do keep the white on their fins. I have a pair in my main tank and they look ace,
My water params are pH of 6.5 at a temp of 82. The TDS is around 30 each time they've spawned. There hasn't really been an obvious trigger yet. Hopefully with a few more spawns, i will pick up on one. I'll keep rcording everything, and see what i find.I have another pair that have spawned twice, but the male kicked the eggs out each time. Trying them with rain water and HMA instead of the RO and HMA i use with the others, just to see how they go.
I've got quite a few people wanting the babies off me, but i want to keep them all haha

This may sound stupid but i am new to breeding BNs, what does RO, TDS and HMA stand for?

defintely not a stupid question. i have asked the same when i started out keeping discus. RO is Reverse Osmosis, HMA is Heavy Metals Axe and TDS is Total Dissolved Solids.
