Spawned Today.......yipee

[Netty]

So after about 25hrs they started to spawn just 15 mins after hubby left to pick up the van up country.....typical.

It was the most exciting and nerve wracking thing to watch and here are some pics of the moment it all happened. Now just have to wait and see if we get a successful hatching Sahara is now recovering and has some bloodworm and Taro is tending to his nest and hopefully not eating any!!!!!
