Hey guys
Right after basketball practice I went to check on my new angels and I found some eggs! I was surprised to see that they didnt spawn on the filter intake.
These angels actually survived a pretty bad car accident on their way home so maybe the extra stress plus new water triggered it...
Yep, came home from work and sure enough, they did it again. Female is guarding about a silver dollar size clutch. Great timing as the 1$/gal sale is still on....will need to get another tank.:D
UPDATE on spawn #1
I have 6 left from the first spawn. They are about 1/2" now and doing well...
Hi everyone. I need some urgent advice.
I got six young Electric Blue Rams about 2 weeks ago. I put them in a 10 gal. tank, just to grow out a little bit, along with 4 Pseud. Gertrudae, a few chili rasboras, 3 Ammo shrimp, a pygmy cory and an otto. and 2 assassin snails. Yeah, I know it's...
After the first successful spawn I pulled the fry and placed them in a 10 gallon grow out and moved mom and dad into a 10 of their own. The Ac110 running on the 55 had a small leak so I siliconed it. In the couple of days it waited to dry the Jewells spawned again!
So, here they sit with...
Ok this should help us common folk get some idea of what us NW guys have and currently are trying to breed.
I will go first
Caquetia Umberfiurm Gorillus Blue F1 pair
Caquetia Umberfiurm Gorillus Black F1 pair
Caquetia Umberfiurm Rio Magdelena F1 male F0 female
Caquetia Umberfiurm Rio Mag...
I have a 10-gallon grow out tank for my Aspidoras sp. CW052 that also houses the last of my Corydoras gracilis and 2 Aspidoras pauciradiatus. Found some eggs adhered to the thermometer yesterday.
Either the CW052s can spawn at a much smaller size than anticipated or the pauciradiatus spawned...
I have been pretty lazy posting spawns but with all of these snow days, I'm able to get caught up on a bunch of stuff I had been putting off. Like this, I purchased a big group of 1.5" juvies from Cichlids Are Special and set up a donated 55 in my classroom. That was a year ago in October when...
I'm pretty sure as a result of the recent snowstorm, my Corydoras aeneus spawned. (plain bronze cories, not he albino variety)
They've spawned pretty regularly for me during the summers (name a tropical storm/hurricane since I got them and they've spawned) but the last batch of eggs that I...
This pair of Ptychochromis oligacanthus has been thinking about spawning for months.....they finally decided to do it. In fact, they're still going....
I came home from the meeting (great meeting) to find the D. macs at it again - the female was swimming slowly over a leaf and the male was following behind, then a badis would swoop in and the female would bite him in the head. I busted out my camera to take some video and they decided to go all...

My first spawn ever! So, uh, now what? Do I take the fry out? I really don't have room in my house for another tank to raise them, though I suppose I could wrangle up a 10-gallon tank. Anybody want some fry?
Right now, parents and babies are in a 55-gallon tank with a bunch of tetras, a...
Ok, it looks like I have one of my regular BNs has been in a cave for a couple days now. All I basically see is his tail, when I shine a light into the cave, it looks like he's fanning something in there ... is it safe to assume that he has a spawn in there??
I've got a bunch of these little dudes in my tank now!
I got the parents from Tony at Aquamania.

Well, I thought that GBRs weren't suppose to spawn in hard water ... FFX county water is always 180+ on my API test but look at what I found yesterday when I got home from work :)
So in a weeks time I had 3 spawns from my community tank with about 8 rams 6 angels 4 torpedo barbs cories endlers Otos etc
This is the first spawn for them all!
First off it started in a secluded corner where the eggs lasted 2 days and were probably eaten because that night I left the light...
I noticed that my Apistos were acting a bit odd, and the female was all colored-up tonight. When I approached the tank, she darted into a pleco cave that I had put in there about a week ago for some ancistrus....
well, I guess she really liked it for herself!
My wild caught Cyno. Afra White Likoma spawned for the first time today I have some pic's of them around the spawn site. I nervous that the Kingsize might hybridize with the afra. All they did is chase both sexes away. the male kingsizei did not court the female afra. I also never seen the male...
