    Default It's That Time Again

    My Colbat and Red Alquer doing their thing again, check it out: https://youtu.be/Li2z8X-qvjE?si=yfauL9V7BNRQTcaL Next video shows eggs laid: https://youtu.be/8rrqUmDMYjI?si=TJK1Y9J3cIoEV2Jw Their in my 125-gallon tank with 8 other discus, the most ever happen twice the eggs went to wriggler stage and the parents eat them. I did the breeding bit a few years back but for now, just let things happen in the tank. Nice to see that this can happen and shows that my tank is A-okay.

    Roland, Nice vids! Love the shaking the Cobalts doing. Definitely one happy healthy fishy. There just one thing that is bothering me about the tank.. you got to work harder at doing less water changes, your Nitrates are probably too low... Didn't that guy say 90ppm for nitrates? LMAO

    Seems to be an odd pairing. What are the babies going to look like?
    But on the other hand,
    good for Roland , he must be doing something right.

    Nice looking fish! I personally love the "classic" domestics like these. Maybe they are enjoying the Family Feud along with the food and water changes...

    Nothing gets my wife and I in the mood more than a little bit of Steve Harvey and Family Feud in the background! (only joking)

    Have to say those fish look like they're in excellent condition.
