Pics and video in the breeding section. So excited!

I had three breeding pairs, getting them to stop breeding was harder than getting them to start. Great looking fish I love RH Taps. GL

Thanks. Is it normal for the male to chase the female away from the egg site? My male has taken over the whole left side of the tank and chases the female Every time she comes close.

Mine took turns. If it's the first spawn it might take a spawn or two to get it right.

I just hope he doesn't beat her up.

Should I leave a small night light on so the male can defend the nest site after all lights go out?

I personally wouldn't.

I wouldn't, just let nature take its course. They will learn what to do if not this time, next.
