Well was thinking its about time i cleaned the L397 tank it was a little dirty and the PH was 6 so i went like a bat out of hell to clean it.
Pulled all the wood out started to remove the caves. Some fish were in the caves but once i tipped them up they fell out untill the last cave picked it up fish didnt fall out.So i did the wrong thing and he fell out along with a clump of eggs and 3 wrigglers.:wb:
This is my very first spawn.

Neato. Perfect time to grab eggs when they are just hatching like that too. Less chance of losing eggs to fungus.

Once they a few days old its not so easy to get little suction cupped mouths off the inside of a log.

Males got plenty of time now to get out, have a good feed and be ready to court the ladies again. :)

Congrats on the spawn :woohoo:

I've done that accidently a couple of times, don't worry, it won't put him off doing the deed again :D
