Hey guys, just posting some pics of my pair again, they are gearing up to spawn! WC Male is pushing 9" and F2 female around 5.5".

Beautiful, this is what the end goal for me is. A paired set of Festae is just amazing. This is exactly why I post my questions here on mfk before I let new arrivals at the LFS tempt me! Wonderful set sir.

Festae are stunning! Would this be their first spawn?

Thank you, and yes it is awesome having a pair. But trust me it took Time and effort. It took about 7 months of dividing and doing it all for a spawn. But it was still well worth it, now it's been about 4 months since their last spawn, I recently moved them into a 125 and after about 3 weeks in the big tank they r getting ready to go at it!

That is awesome the pair are extremely nice. I know it can take some time to spawn certain fish. Do you take out the pot when she lay eggs or let them do it naturally?
