This morning I found the eggs still at the back of the cave and the male was there as well X_X :d :-BD
So, so far it is looking more promising then the first spawn at this stage! Fingers crossed!!!

Hi Jac,

that's great! Wanted to tell you that I recently bought a group of eight of these to supplement my 2 males:) They're still in quarantaine right now, and quite small (4-7cm). Curious to see how things progress this time. Good luck!

true, thanks for that! are your l239 not up for some romance right now? mine are growing nicely, and I have been fortunate enough to have gotten all 8 of them through quarantaine. Do yours eat a lot of wood? My two adults appear to be shredding as if they were panaque's, but it might also be the p. maccus in the tank.. I find a lot of info on their diet to be contradictory, so far they appear to be happy on a bit of everything though ;-) Good luck with any further tries with them!
