Jewel Spawn

Well I was looking in my jewel tank and saw this:



lol imagine my surprise



The other day when I was doing a water change I saw that the end of the bubble bar was uncovered but didn't see anything or even begin to think anything was going on

well today I saw 2 of them in that corner and when I looked closer I saw the eggs

I doubt any of the fry will make it as there are 8 more jewels and some rubber lipped plecos in the tank but it's still cool

You will have to overlook the pic quality as I took them with my cell phone

NICE!!!! i wish some of my calvus would start breeding still got a year atleast lol congrats

Wow! thats so cool! *goes back and watches daffodil cichlids for any babies*

But good job on getting those to spawn, and who knoes, you might get a baby or two to survive!

well I took the rest of the fish out except for the bottom feeders hopefully the plecos won't eat the eggs

haha yeah. I have heard that they just will eat the algae off the eggs, but that could cause a couple casualities:O

hope u get some babys. are jewel r good looking

ok well the plecos had caviar for dinner

which is ok by me cuz I really don't need more jewels but this episode did teach me how to sex them

as I read conflicting articles about it on the net

Well i guess at least the plecos were well fed this week?
