Today after a water change I discovered that my male snakeskin first laid eggs with a rafflesia checkerboard (they paired up a while ago) and then wandered off to fertilize a clutch of eggs from an albino dickson gold .... not sure where this is going...currently he's guarding both clutches.

I guess, they will be all eaten by the torpedo barbs at some point, never gets past the first night of the free-swimming phase in there anyways(another pair laid eggs yesterday and the red map/golden sunrise pair currently has wigglers).
Just thought I'd share a pic of the three-some.
