New pair bond!

So Freckles is a male and spawning as I type with Orange Soda who is a female!!!! Its a bit sloppy for their first time..... They didn't move any snails and just spawned on top of a few
Pics are pretty impossible due to where in the tank they spawned

These pics are about a month old....

Orange soda, Female


Freckles, Male


They are both dripping with slime now! Freckles had started to slime up this morning so I knew something was up

Congrates!

congrats

If they can keep a few batches of eggs well in the main tank I will move them off to their own tank to try to get some fry from them.

Congrats fern! Hope this works for you!

CONGRTAZ Fern. Good luck with them.

seeems like a good pair to work with, congrats

Congratz!!

Aweskme

They are still there, so I may have a good pair here! They are pulling the bad eggs, protecting and fanning! The eggs almost look like they are fixing to hatch

That is awesome hope it goes better than the first!

I can see eyes in the eggs

sounds official fern!

How soon do they attach to the parents?

i think day 3 after free swimming, i forgot fern. when they free swim its considered there b-day

Ok so they probably wont get the chance to make it that far..... they are in the community tank....

U could split the tank so they have their own safety area but I would move any now since its getting so close and dont want to risk they eggs

when there free swimming, they are fresh entrees for the other fishys, but its a good way so the pair has a tighter bond and will be better parents. or so i read.

They are dead center of the tank and scarface and Tiger are fixing to spawn on one side..... So if they get eaten oh well! At least I know I have a viable pair!!

And we have wigglers
My discus gave me wigglers for Christmas!
And tiger and scarface just spawned, I don't expect the wiggler to make it through the night just because I have seen scarface raid a few times
But hey first time and good hatch rate I'm not complaining!!!
