Thank you all for the comments Smile

I will keep you posted on the spawning tries They have already taken to the coconut hut I made for them and piled the gravel up to the hole and dug out lots of gravel from inside it. Unlike my Krib's they seem to care what their home looks like lol!

I'm very happy to report EGGS!!! They have taking to my home made clay cave made from to pot bottoms glued together. I went to the fish room this morning to see the female lost her pinkish belly so I looked closer to see a glimpse of eggs in there hut. They are not as aggressive as my kribs but still do a good job of keeping others away. Not holding my breath about a successful spawn just yet but its great to know they have taken to there new home and water. The future looks bright! have to love Xmas presents that keep giving!!

I know its hideous!!! But I got that 55g tank gravel and stand for $20 I just never changed it, just removed 1/2 after cleaning it all. Rather have the gravel than bare bottom. I'm testing a dirt tank if it works they will get there own 20g long dirt tank.

nice Kribs you got there. I have a pair of albino and normal. I've been trying to get my albinos to breed and the male just doesn't seem to know what to do. My normal's pump babies out like its their job! A very fun fish to have.
