Today I saw this:
These are eggs of my Sturiosoma sp, but two batches. the eggs on the left-bottom are 4 or 5 days old, the others fresh
I never saw the male breedig 2 batches of eggs at the same time, normally (I have a trio) the females take turns laying eggs
It is the best pic I could manage, without flashing the eggs.Odd behaviour of a Sturiosoma sp male?

Re: Odd behaviour of a Sturiosoma sp male?
I would guess that in nature, like Ancistrus for example, the male will normally look after multiple clutches of eggs.

This is good, isn't it
For mine, the female doesn't seems to learn how to stick the eggs on the glass well. It has been a few batches already, and all the eggs just fell to the ground.
