Dose the female stay around the eggs?

no it is the dedicated father who raises the babies. this is the case with all catfish i believe.

thanks lol. it was really funny. i got a new powerhead in yesterday for the tank they are in. it is one that moves so it makes a sweeping current. well i wanted to place my new toy in the tank but i didn't want to disrupt them so i had to wait. it is kind of like Christmas when you cant open your presents. i did place the powerhead in there this mourning and my male got mad and left the cave.:x so i had to stop and he went back in there. only one of the females breed and he trapped her in the cave for like 2.5 hrs.

I have a cave in there for my 2 ABN. The male just sits by the hole and waits on the female. Once she goes in there he is basically going to make her do it.

ahhhhhhhh For the last 2 weeks she has ben on the other side of the tank....While he is sitting right on the end of the log hole. . Thanks
