Think the male has made his bubble nest, but its not very big.. the female is still in trap where he can see her and is flaring at her, but hse not got them breeding bars yet... does shet get white lines going from head to tail? or from top to bottom?

here is a little video of what i woke up to

ty, thanks for selling me it

I proud of him, maybe small but like you said, at least he tried

At least you didnt have to get the straw out

Thats a nice bubble nest you got there, that will be fine for him but remember from a first spawning you be lucky to get the fry to free swimming but give him a few try's and you'll have loads of babies

Only thing is the water look's very deep, the reason for shallow water is to allow the male to find fry that drop out the nest eaiser, if it to deep they drift around and make it harder to find them.

the bars should look like tiger stripes almost, vertical. lines running head to tail are stress lines
