That's a great achievement as I don't think this has been recording in captivity since the TFH published spawning in 1992. What are the chances of getting some pics (and info.) for the catelog? I'd also be really interested in finding out if there are visual clues to sexing these fish.

I will pass the comments on to Roy, thanks lads.
I think the fry have died. :( I will do an article for Roy and send you it once completed.

Too bad. Nevertheless, a great achievement. Hopefully they will spawn again.

A stellar acheivement to get that far. I have a very soft spot in my heart for people who even attempt to breed fish such as this. I agree with Marc. I hope they spawn again. :thumbsup:
