You will never see eggs. The eggs are laid inside of the shells out of sight.

Daves rare aquarium fish usually has a lot of cool stuff. I also buy off aquabid. If you can find a local fish club they might also have breeders. Most of the different species you can find on aqua bid. I don't remember who I ve bought from on there though.

I know you live in my general area for the most part so check out TBAS1.com you can probably find them there or post a wanted ad for them, some people from Orlando also check it out so its a really good source. There are a lot of breeders in that club and maybe they will have them. You can check out marine warehouse or give them a call if they don't have them they can probably get them in from one of the ruskin farms. You could probably start off with 8 of them and see how it goes.

The eggs are laid in the shell so you wont get the eggs. They are really good parents though so I would not take the eggs out of the tank anyways. One you have fry they will be excellent hiders so if you decide to remove them just let them hid in the shells then take the shells out (with water in them of course) and just put them in the other tank or where they are going.

If you can get out to clearwater they have really cheap shells for at the bait shop on the pier for cheap that's where I got mine from.
