Hey guys!
Now it's been a few days and i see that the boesmanis are in mating behavior.
The tank water is a little colored after the new driftwood and light is low but that is how the boes wants it:yes:
I belive the female will spawn soon and i will be getting ready.
Iam thinking of making an spawning site for them,Make a long mop of Orlon or Nylon strands and hopefully they will lay the eggs there so it will be easier for me to pick up the eggs and have them in the tank in a breeding box.
I will let you guys know how it's going.Here are some pics i have showed you before on their spawning behavior.






I know human beings and fish can co-exist peacefully.

A spawning mop sounds like a good idea. I would recomend any kind of moss you might have avaiable in your area. Hope yours dont gobble the eggs up right away like my rainbows did.

A spawning mop will be very good, but remember to check for the eggs daily, as i think they may take a few days to spawn all the eggs.
