    I have a young snakeskin pair that has been spawning regularly. This is their fourth or fifth time with fry. They've finally coraled them and they're attaching.

    Beautiful pair, and smart. It usually takes mine 20 - 30 times to get it right!

    My "Feelin the Luv" post was about this pair. In all fairness, I have to admit I'm not sure if it was the male or female I had to remove. It went into the community tank, which contained another of its strain. They're fighting for territory now for a hook-up. Discus can be fickle. It's about time to pull the other parent off the fry. I bet I could cause some trouble, but i think I'll look for another tank.

    Very nice looking pair Steve ! Always a wonderful sight to watch the parents raise the fry

    I recently purchased Leopard Snakeskin sold as a possible pair. They been laying eggs regularly and eating well. So far they laid eggs 5 times with all the eggs turning white after 30+hrs. Tds they are in is about 110. My question is how long is it okay to let them continue spawning/attempts ? I'm sure I have a male and a female and not 2 females.
