I already feed them with Tetra Wafer Mix + Sera Catfish Chips + JBL Novo Pleco + frozen cyclop once a day before tuning the light off and after taking some photos.

Alex,
I hope you are already giving some thought to turning this thread into an article for Shane's World.

I'm thinking about it:)
But is it OK if the photos that could be used in the article already posted in this topic?

Not an issue at all. As an article it will be easier to locate for site users. Several articles on the site came from forum postings. If you get me a rough draft that includes the basic water chemistry, tank, foods, filtration, etc I can easily help you with editing that data into an article.

I hope he does. I asked the same a few pages ago and keep getting emails how the thread has been updated and it's just another 'day X, more pics' post. Not that the pictures aren't good, but maybe you don't need to post a daily thing with them?

Then again, I might be in the minority here but this topic takes a while to load on my computer due to the high image counts.

Got a full tank shot?
Unfortunately not. I'd like to take some shots of the tank, but all the shots I take are too bad to post them.
I asked the same a few pages ago and keep getting emails how the thread has been updated and it's just another 'day X, more pics' post.
You asked two questions. One of them I answered then, the other now (see previous quote and answer) :)
I'll write some info about the spawning and send to Shane, and I hope it will helps :)
Not that the pictures aren't good, but maybe you don't need to post a daily thing with them?
My aim is to take daily pictures :)
Then again, I might be in the minority here but this topic takes a while to load on my computer due to the high image counts.
Maybe it is better to post a single daily picture, but it is difficult to me to choose which picture to post.
Please do an article. i have some adults and was wondering if you did something to trigger them?
As usual changing quality and conductivity of water and changing the tank volume.

Maybe don't post daily pictures here then, but instead post one every week showing how the fry grow? I am not seeing many differences in the day to day basis. And again, no offense meant, but please remember that some people don't have fast Internet connections and heavy-image posts like these can be difficult to open.
