Here is my umbee pair, Legacy and Alize:) Legacy is 7.5-8" and Alize is 8-8.5". I've been trying to pair them out for the last three months with not much luck being she is larger than him. But I stayed patient and worked the divider as much as I could.I noticed her tube was dropping yesterday and I didn't want to miss another chance having her spawn with the divider down.so I pulled it and let them display and battle all morning. No scales went missing this time so I kept my fingers crossed. after 5 hours she allowed him to enter a flower pot with her:) and before I knew it they were spawning!!!!! There's got to be close to 1000 eggs. Today is day two and they are doing great now. I was half expecting her to chase him off after they spawned, but so far so good

Simply stunning pair Jason.
The male is just ridiculously but that female..never seen that many pearls on a female umbee before

Great job, cant wait to see what the fry will look like

I love the blue blushing on the males face, he's a stunner already at that size.

Thanks bro:) I am lucky to have umbees like this. But if everything goes right in the next few months then everyone will get the chance to own something even nicer than these:)
