Are they allowed to do this before the watershed?
Not even doing it in the moss pit I made them!

Mine occasionally look as though they're at it like teenagers, but I've yet to find any eggs. Are they hiding them and then are my fish eating the eggs before I find them? They share the tank with three apistogramma borellii, some c. habrosus and c. pygmaeus, and some cherry barbs.

The eggs are just dropped wherever the pair happens to be - in the gravel, in a clump of moss... Other fish will eat the eggs, of course. Once had a killi tank only and after a little while it was like a guppy tank - fish of different ages & sizes popping up everywhere. I do like the way they move, so different from 'normal' fish.

Yeah they're hypnotic to watch - particularly when they're just holding still!Ric wrote: ↑Sat Mar 14, 2020 13:40 pm The eggs are just dropped wherever the pair happens to be - in the gravel, in a clump of moss...
