| Trojan_man Enthusiast Posts: 204 Kudos: 191 Votes: 0 Registered: 10-Aug-2004 | well, first time, the pleco and all the other fish ate them. second time divided the oscar from other fish, this time the parents ate them. 3rd time I artifically rear them, and they got kill by fungus...   This time I have methynle blue ready, but they are still doing their dancing/courting still.  They are about 10 inches by the way. |

With all the others in with them they will waste precious time trying to control the crowd instead of looking after the kids so to speak, but good luck anyway. Muss  |
