Hi Guys, I had an awesome past 24 hours. It started yesterday after water changes and I noticed my female Ethelwynnae holding with a huge mouthful. With way too many males in with her I decided to strip her. To my surprise I had over 50 eggs (No clue actual count, more then I can count without losing count). Here is a pic of dad:

Then first thing this morning I saw my Chitande Type North's had spawn. She is 1 1/2", so I figured it best to strip her. Here is a pic of Dad, he is just over 2":

Thanks I am very excited to have both batches. Especially from 2 rare species too. I found out the other day the Ethelwynnae's are on the red list and listed as vulernable in the wild.

Thanks KMX and Zuly. I am very excited and nervous at the same time. I watch them all the time. So hoping I get a good success rate from the eggs. Especially the Ethelwynnae's, I have bought 6 females and only one turned out to be a female so far. So I really need more of them.

Thanks BFinley, I am trying to get into breeding some of the more rare Peas. So far I have only got half of the ones I want to have. But things are coming slowly. Guess this is why they are rare, Hee Hee
