Hazara Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 Well, I have a tree stump in my tank, and at the top it's hollow... Anyway I devided to remove all the java moss from it and clean it up... Now I also hadn't seen my big male BN for a while, he usually hides behind it so when I move near him he just lopes off. Anyway - had the trunk outside on the concrete ripping off the moss and I noticed a fry flapping around in the hot - concrete warmed water. By the time I got a tube to suck him up with too late. Anyway - back to cleaning off the log and I noticed it was growling at me.... yep you guessed... Big male BN wedged in the top hollow. OOPS, back in the tank and a couple of days later I noticed a baby BN jumping around the top!! Since then we've seen 3 which is more than I expected as I gave that log a good blast with the hose as well :oops: I've had every species in my tank spawn but this is my first set of babies - my pencils always spawn in front of the uptake and all others get chased but all the other fish.

Caryl Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 I have had large BNs out of the tank for over 2 hours before finding them and putting them back in the tank - none the worse for wear 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
