Congrats on the new fish. Never kept one but did a decent amount of reading on them. I read somewhere that keeping the temps lower is better for them. Dont remember what the temp was but may be worth while to find out what other successful keepers keep their temps at
I keep my breeding tanks and community tank at 81 degrees. Both breeders spawn anywhere between 21 and 28 days. Does increase aggression a bit but the blues are pretty laid back. The bgjd female breeders are the brutes even at 1/2 the males size.
