These Bifas got moved from a 180g tank to a 450g tank on Sunday. Now Wednesday, and they're laying and fertilizing eggs like no tomorrow... Directly in the center of the tank too -- much to the dislike of all the other fish! Female is about 12-13" and male is about 10". There's got to be well over 1000 eggs. The eggs are the exact same color and size as my PFS! Two open palmed sized rocks covered in eggs, plus some of the driftwood behind them too! I managed to grab a couple decent shots. They don't seem to mind me at all. Video to follow! Stay tuned!

wow very pretty pair. Havent seen Bifas with bright yellow rear like that lately or i can't remember seeing any like that before... male looks bigger.

what is pfs?
 
Beautiful Pair! Well done. You must be a great fishkeeper.
 
Thanks everyone. I'm interested to see if the eggs are still there by the time I get home. I suspect the loaches will have picked them off overnight.
