Bought a breeding pair of gold severums, they have settled in and have started to move around all the plants in the tank, clean the pieces of slate and move around the sand , does this mean that thay are getting ready to lay?!:popcorn:
 
I think they are ready......just wait, it will lay soon.
 
Well this morning i woke up and went to check on them to see if they had layed, and they are still moveing things around and following each other around the tank! The biggest one which i think is the male sort of dances around the smaller one which i think is the female. She sort of encourages him to do so. I've read that they kiss, i haven't seen them do so yet, does this matter? Thanks for your reply.
 
YES! they have laid and are guarding there eggs. What is the best thing to do when they hatch, leave them in? Or transfare them to another tank?
