Once she grew a brain she turned in to a nympho

I feel sorry for Daddy fish. Mommy made run after run after run after run. She didn't quit until after lights out. Poor dad was so tuckered. At first he followed her up the cone every time. But as it went on and on, he decided to watch for a while before he took a shot at covering the eggs. The pic is of mom "fanning" the eggs in the pitcher while dad watches. They take turns. The other pic is of their last spawn, the one for sale now, when the pair finally grew brains. The other pic is of the spawn they laid last night.

There always a nympho in a group, I usually pair them up with a mature male.

Liz quick question please how do you acclimatise the fry when putting them back in the tank after using R/O water thanks

Just before the eggs hatch to wiggling, or soon after, change their water with some of the water the parents are used to. Once they free swim, just dump the babies in with the parents. The change in parameters doesn't bother them.
