As pointed out already, the eggs are not sticky. I had a pair a few years back on a bare bottom tank. Not knowing this provided the clay pot and other hides. They were some frustrated it seemed chasing eggs around because each time I was looking or passing by the male would get all defensive and whip all the eggs around then both would frantically retrieve them.

Needless to say I used clay pots but right way up worked like a charm

duanes duanes coming through with some amazing info. I had no idea they needed such a high PH. I had one roughly 12 years ago with other central americans and couldn't figure out why he got pits in his face. My PH was at 7.2. That was probably why. Great info!!

i keep mine at 5.5-6 with south americans so thats pretty doubtful. their natural habitat also greatly ranges in ph.
