2 red turqs and my big pigeon "bog momma" have been cleaning the filter inlet
for a couple days now..they couldn't get behind it, so I decided to help them
out by cleaning the inlet for them...no sooner than I put it back in did they
go over to it and "big mommatcha" started laying eggs on it...making upward passes...so...I got eggs...not even ready for it....she is laying them and
the red turqs are eating them....pretty cool. My harness is too high to high
to hatch..not to mention the tankmates. This weekend all the grow outs go
back to a bb 55 and maybe I will throw all three of the lovers into another 55 bb to themselves.

COOL Dave!!! So do you have any eggs left or did they all get eaten? Are any of them showing signs of being fertilized yet? I can bet it's exciting as hell! This is kind of what I'm hoping happens with my scribbled reds lol... let us know how it goes!
