update: egg's have hatched and mother has moved the fry to the center of the tank, will update as soon as i have photos, has anyone else noticed that the mother moves the fry around the tank or is this just my experience?

damn, i want my cons to spawn. im bout to pull them from my piranha tank n separate them. did you purchase an actual breeding pair or did you jus buy a male and a female and they spawned?
