Possible that some of the fry are blothed but I treat them with metrodenizol and see if that works out!

Hi
I think they are around 8 -10 cm
Perhaps the female is a bit smaller.

Great job!
Thanks for sharing. I also have a group of L30, but no success yet.
Could you please write the size of the spawning cave?

Hi!

My caves are all homemade! There not one same size. But the cave they spawned in where about 14 cm deep and around 4- 5 cm/dm My caves have a narrow opening and also narrow at the back of the cave.

This spawn was pure luck. I just stored them with the L333 and didnt have any efforts to breed them at this moment
