Rokteil Severums Spawning

[mark7616]

Just caught my Sevs spawning so grabed the cam and got what I could pics are crap though as it kept trying to focus on the bubbles but best I could do in a rush. Was to quick to finish though as once I was loading the pics I watched the male fertilise the eggs so missed that part. Anyways:

Female Laying the Eggs

Male watching over her

The eggs shame I missed the ferilisation

I'm glad some good has come out of everything that has happened to you, Mark! Are you just going to let nature take it's course or do you have plans of rearing the fry?

Lol in that tank there is the Aro, 6 sevs, 2 pearsei, IT, NTT, NGT, Fire eel, flag tail and an L200 what do you think will happen?

I knew what was in there... but I was wondering if you were going to take the eggs out. Got my answer, though.

How would I do that?>

Figured you could take out the wood with them on there, if it's not huge or something. I don't know what else to do, I guess. Or you could put something in there like a flower pot to see if they will spawn again in there for you, to make moving the eggs easier.

Just mentally working out the space needed for all the fish you listed. You must have an 8ft tank at a guess?

 

[mark7616]

Lol that piece of wood is probably 3ft long and 2ft high. I think nature will play its game with that. Here you go quaver.

I couldn't remember if it was only one piece of wood or multiple stacked on each other. Either way, good luck with the fish.
