Compared to your beautiful fish room, my poor fish live in the slums. It looks nice, is well constructed, and appears to be very efficient and well designed. Good job!
Beautiful fish.
Liz, I love your fish room!

The marble pair I got from Liz has taken over the cone end of the tank. Here the golds and plats are fighting over the heater cord!

They need another cone, Steve.

Yes, but it mostly means they're happy, so me too!
Yes. If the pairs will want to get it on if they're happy. You're doing a great job with them. They're easy for a Discus person because they're the same but easier.
Mama Bear
Both Gold pairs have wigglers. What fun!

I hope that you have smaller tank for when the eggs hatch. The other fish will chow down on the babies when they swim through the egg crate. Or you just testing the pair so see if they try to parent raise?
Mama Bear
Ha! The marble pair spawned on the glass.

All the pairs I sent you needed was a chance. I didn't have tank space to give them that. Turns out I sent them to the right guy.
Mama Bear
OK, so IF I decide to try to raise them, I'm guessing a day or two until free-swimming. They don't feed off of the parents like discus, so have BBS ready?

Congrats. I think the gold pearls are stunning. They take longer to free swim than Discus but yes, have your BBS ready. Don't be alarmed if they spend some time on the tank bottom. If there's BBS swimming in the water they'll swim up to catch it when they're hungry.
