Hey everyone. I have a group of Geo red head Tapajos and 2 of them have paired up but no action. They have been paired up for over a week now. The female anal tube was fully out but still no action. The male bounced around to female to female a couple times. He's now back with the 1st female he paired up with but her anal tube disappeared. They just stay by the rock and chase every other fish that gets near it. Can someone tell me why there hasn't been any action yet? Is it because I'm overstocked? The tank is a standard 90 gallon with overkill filtration with a group of 10 4"-6" Geo Red Heads 70% female/30% males, 3 x Gymnogeo Labiatus 1 male/2 females, and 1 male Leucosticta.

Anyone??? I just removed the male Leucosticta and placed him in my other tank. Now the tank has 13 fish in it. 10 Geo Tapajos and 3 Gymno Labiatus.
Nvm saw it's a 90 gallon thinking overstocked

Ya it's been well over a week since they have paired up. I would say more like 2 weeks now cuz I've done 2 weekly scheduled water changes on the tank since the pairing...

I had G altifrons spawn in an overstocked tank, and they both shared mouthbrooding. But until I moved the pairs into separate tanks, the fry would disappear.
The Gymno labiatus should probably be moved into a cooler tank anyway. They are a sub=tropical species.

Ya I will either sell off the labiatus or get a separate tank for them and maybe try to breed them as well. They are some what rare in the hobby from where I live.

my pair have spawned 3x and eggs get eaten, but every time the eggs last a little longer.
you could've missed seeing the first eggs.
