I got the first spawn from the dovii today, a whole two weeks into having them. I already pulled one fish out of the 210 due to aggression and will probably divide the pair and the other fish. I also had to divide the lyonsi because two seem to be pairing up and the one that appears to be male was getting rowdy. The le ciaba appear to have ick so they are being treated with salt and temp currently.

Nice fish - thanks for sharing

I didn't know they would spawn at that young age. It's great seeing fry like that.

Neither did I. These guys are only 3.5-4" and I was not even sure they would be sexable at that size. The male I removed lost any markings that would distinguish it as male once I took him out.
