Red tiger mota & green texas

[Nilsafeller]

Thanks for the feedback.
I'm looking at a used 75gal Saturday (prolly $130 for tank and stand) and I would then move the mota and the Texas to it. Until then, I only have a community tank as an option and it's my wife's fish so that's a no go .
On the plus side, the red devil is occupied for the moment and that is fine too. Question though, if I move mom, dad, and spawn rock will it destroy the family action? I could do a big water change into the 75 and even place a seasoned filter on it as well as some of the furniture from this aquarium to make it a seasoned tank.

It may actually help! Any time I've moved a possible pair into their own tank it usually intensifies their breeding

Personally, I’d move the devil to the 75 and leave the breeding pair & eggs.

There's other fish in there too, so I think that moving the pair would benefit. I may just encounter probs with my vulture cat. I
gotta say that the red tiger is hella good at defending, not against the devil of course, but the others 4 sure.

Update pic. These are viable eggs.

The ones that the devil stole are too.
