tank just became a breeding ground

[Maren]

Thought i would share our fun at this moment I have 3 groups of fish that are spawning in my 180 tank
our red severum and gold severum spawned on the wood

Then we have a turquoise severum that spawned with a Rotkeil
here is the female

here is the male with the eggs

so many eggs they fell of the tube

Then there is our poor lone red severum she is laying eggs on the filter down tube and eating them..

The red/gold severum eggs usually dont last in the tank so im thinking those will be there maybe a day. But this is the first time the turquoise and rotkeil have spawned the rotkeil is being extremely territorial of the area wont even let the turquoise over by him, only let her over there once and that was so he could go eat after he had a few bites he chased her away again.

do you have a male and female red severum? i would say set up another tank and pair them together and see if they spawn but that is a gamble cause if they might not ever spawn again
