if this is true i will sell you my brother

ahahahah

I dont have a need for another brother, but, I guess I could make room for him...lol I'm working on some pics with a cheap camera at least of the parents. the babies will have to wait till the better camera will work, they are way too small to take pics of with the crappy camera.

they are not the only ones in there....there are two rainbows, one turquise SP? and one that is red. and a pleco. but I'm sure they are ids, cause they have the same body shape, including the fin on the bottom. One of the sharks is 12+ inches, and the other is 7+ inches. Like I said I didnt think they were big enough to spawn. I know they get to like 3+ feet but thats a long way off.

they were actually laid on some piping that was for air tubes in the tank, but is currently not being used.

here are some pics of the parents, and one of the babys now in a breeders net, they are impossible to make out at this time with my cheap camera, but I'm working on it.

note the two back specks by the top left where the fake plant is are two of the babies.

I have 2 12" ID's. If you got those nervous(sp) guys to breed, congrats. Get a better camera and brag to the world!

Mine are actually not that nervous unless you got your hands in the tank. when I had them in a 40 hex the big one would get scared and hit all the walls, but in the big tank its fine.
