I had a pair of my Geo tapajos (finally) spawn for me. I'd been having issues because the only adult female I had was paired up with a male who is too pushy, but at last some of the female fish from a precious pair are ready to do the deed and so far one other paired up. They laid their clutch on thursday and today, rather than let them raise them on their own, I snatched the rock they were on up out of there to try my hand. Hopefully they bounce back and drop another shortly, which I have no doubt they will. I would have let them keep them but they are in a community and I guessed this was easiest to make sure I get all the little fry.
Here is what I have for the set up. The tank is ~20g with a sponge filter and I have an airstone sticking out just a little from under the rock. I hope that's enough circulation to prevent fungus. I have never removed the eggs before so this is a learning experience.
Here are the parents. Not my nicest looking male but definately the biggest and so far he's been a great partner.
And here is how I have the eggs currently
So tell me if this looks good and any tips you might have. Thanks
