Since picking this group up on new years eve these fish seemed to have settled in well. They had not bred for the previous owner for quite a while. As soon as i got them settled they were showing signs.
They are in a 4x12x15h tank with no rockwork at all. Just coral gravel 10mm and already hard water, Water changes are done 25l every 2 days, with untreated tap water at shed temperature.
I currently have eggs i stripped from one female in a tumbler, I did have 8 but im now down to 3 so needless to say i will be letting the females do all the work from now and only take them out to spit at 3 weeks. In the tank now there are 2 females holding, plus this one.
Below is a little video i managed to catch this morning.

Cheers.
