This is why I had four kids. Even if I end up eating a couple (trust me, they probably deserve it), I'd still have some kids left. :)) :)) :-\ [-X

Good luck, and like Bas Pels said, keep doing what you're doing.

Cheers,
Eric

Hi

Just moved them to a small tank and made a short video of the fry

Sorry for poor quality but they are really small

Hi

Bit updates from me.

Yesterday morning as I got out of bed, I discovered they where laying eggs!

Before I got hold of a camera (DSLR or mobile!) they stopped , but I did notice some things...

Male has the female surrounded by the head like Corydoras and they swim all over tank depositing non-sticking eggs.
Problem is that other fish in tank eat them allmost as fast as they appear!
