They are still in their breeding dress and being great parents...protecting their babies even from me!

They look great! Congrats on the spawn. I have had my pair for almost a year with no action whatsoever. Did you do anything in particular to trigger the spawn?

Nice to see some spawning cryptos - remarkable color change when spawning - how interesting.

I have had these guys for about 3 months now...first month nothing, but when I put a terra cotta pot in their tank they got busy pretty quick!
This is their second spawn for me.
