after around a year and a half in my 300. i have finally seen eggs.had the temp set at 80 for a month.finally decided to lower it with a 150 gallon water change.two days ago i noticed a nice black fish.on one end by its self. he looked like he might be gaurding eggs,and doing his own little version of moving water over them.i turned all the other lights in the basement off and snuck over there. sure enough i see a hole lot of eggs. all the ones i see still have a nice yellowish tint and i dont see any fuzzy ones.im crossing my fingers for a hatch.:)
 
Congratz! Great job on the egglings, let us know if you actually hatch them out!

Siphon them out as soon as they hatch. You have a week to get brine shrimp eggs,salt tank salt n a hatchery or two,& a air pump. If you plan on raising some anyhow. Congrats.
