Well Kfenk, I have trained my fishes to pull back a little before I do the gravel cleaning.
I simply wave towards them (like waving good-bye), and they all swim into the green. This way they are not subject of heart-attack. And they respond! :sunny:

So, when spotted eggs, waved to Daddy, and he slightly pulled back. That is how I have made the photo. Check in my album. Very Happy
