| Thank you all for the comments  I will keep you posted on the spawning tries They have already taken to the coconut hut I made for them and piled the gravel up to the hole and dug out lots of gravel from inside it. Unlike my Krib's they seem to care what their home looks like  |

| I'm very happy to report EGGS!!! They have taking to my home made clay cave made from to pot bottoms glued together. I went to the fish room this morning to see the female lost her pinkish belly so I looked closer to see a glimpse of eggs in there hut. They are not as aggressive as my kribs but still do a good job of keeping others away. Not holding my breath about a successful spawn just yet but its great to know they have taken to there new home and water. The future looks bright! have to love Xmas presents that keep giving!! |
