fish_fingers Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Got the biggest surprise this morning when feeding the fish, as you do, noticed that both my Lump heads were fussing around the tank and upon closer inspection I saw their fry :nilly: Unsure of numbers and wasn't expecting any to survive after I accidently disturbed their nest last week. :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fish_fingers Posted July 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Nice. Thanks, not bad for their first brood since I have owned them....not sure what numbers they produced for the previous owners? The female can produce between 40-140 eggs in one spawning. Sheesh.
