Thanks all:hi:
I have a heap of fontinalis in there which seems to do really well, im just going to let them go for now as they will be going into the new tank soon where i will have better access to remove the eggs.
Unreal behaviour to watch none the less.

Unfortunately i cant say i have seen any, i dare say the bn got them before they hatched.
The new tank is taking its time in getting here but when it does i would imagine the water change will get them going again.
:(

I think my L144's scoffed my last paleatus spawn, I'll have to take them out quicker next time. I'm sure that now your sterbai have started spawning they'll probably be quite regular. Better luck next time.

Cheers

Lost that lot too, they are now in there new tank. It took them 24hrs with the change and they where at it again.
Will they lay eggs on the front of the tank? because thats where i found them.

Mine lay them on all sides of the glass, some on plants and even on the glass thermometer.

I'm sure you'll have better luck next time.
