Peacock Gudgeons won't stop stop breeding, these were taken lastnight.I get this at least once a month if not more.

The eggs are also on the ceiling of the pipe but I couldn't get a good shot of it but I usually get about 200 freeswimmers before mom starts eating them ( I don't have the tank space to grow them out right now but these fish are about impossible to kill as well )[/font][/font][/font]

thanks, to give you an idea how small that fish is, its only about 1 1/4 " TL and the eggs are about half the size of corycat eggs.

I have a simple solution. Raise them to wigglers, then give them to me .
