Here is my spawning pair of bolivian rams. They spawned last Saturday ~2pm (AEST). The eggs hatched sometime on Tuesday and are yet to become free swimming. Although there are no shots of them yet as they hid them in the pits of sand near the amazon sword roots and it's proving difficult to get a decent shot. Especially since they decided to move them into the one towards the back just as I got the camera out. There are approxiamately 30 wrigglers for now, I haven't noticed any losses since they hatched but there were initially around 150 eggs and only ~30 by Monday night.

Lovely pics, my male is still trying to woo the female but she is not really interested at the mo. So fingers crossed.
