male papuanewguinea
My 2 Mehgalechis are breeding( some info http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/callicht/megalech/14_f.php)

There are a male and a female ( the male has somehow red on his abdominal fins).They are about 18months old. They had been fed for the last 2 days with blackworms and pellets)
I mean why should they not breed?

The bubble nest is under my front longitudinal glass bar and there is no fish alllowed to get near the spot.

Somehing white and cone shaped has came out from the males ---- and now it's hanging on is it the reproductive organ?


What should i do?
Can i move the babies out formthe aquarium once they hatch?
Move the parents and waait to build another bubble nest.

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

False alarm. The male built the bubble nest but i suspect the gouramy distroyed his nest so he killed both my gouramis and some angels.

This time it is for real i can see the eggs they are like cory's eggs.

So how do i get them out from my community tank and when?
