Back in action!
Well, this is the 3rd time the pair has laid eggs. First two times were duds. Female laid eggs behind divider both times. I'm assuming male could not fertilize due to eggs going bad. This time no divider, and the day she laid the eggs, his junk was hangin' so I'm hoping :naughty:

The eggs have been there since sunday evening with only a few going white.

Here's a sneak peek at the pair. I did not witness the spawning again so this is just the parents with eggs.

Awesome pair. The male has some beautiful colors. Female bright yellow. Some heavy dentures on that male. Looks passive now. Wait till those eggs hatch. He will turn pyscho. My male jumped out the tank yesterday. Trying to attack my cat. Got about 250 fry in there with the pair. Good luck.
 
Absolutely amazing - that male dwarfs that female! LOL What a beast! Best of luck to you on the fry & please keep us updated.

Beautiful pair - good luck man! Got any wigglers yet?

Thanks! I haven't been down there yet. I was wondering about egg hatch time frames. I hope they're squirming today. :headbang2

Thanks! So far he's been pretty much a pussy cat. Pics to come if they have a viable spawn this time! :headbang2
