Your gametes are showing...
I missed the moment of exchange (darn they're quick!) but I caught the the next few minutes as daddy fish got the eggs all settled:

Sweet photo's.
I just had a male eat his eggs after holding for more than 3 weeks ... jerk lol. I had even moved him to his own tank to prevent this from happening. Sidenote, is that bubble algae? Those are huge lol |
The pic with the eggs in his mouth is AMAZING - what a great shot!!! That's a POTM (love)....
|
Mine go constantly. I don't think there are 2 even 2 weeks in between batches. They're both looking pretty well fed though luckily.
Congrats! :mrgreen: |
Thanks! And yah, that's one of my many epic bubbles. That wasn't the biggest one in the tank, not by a long shot. I spent about 4 hours on a ladder today trying to get as many of them out as I could, but since I ended up popping 90% of the ones I got, I"m sure I just made it worse. Valonia is the pits.
This seems to be their biggest clutch yet. I can see the eggs through his gill slits when I look at him from behind. So far I've only been awake when he released the fry once and I caught three, but none of them survived. I'm not sure I was feeding them the right thing. |
