(sorry for my fish morphology ignorance) although I think I just remembered it is a breeding tube??? :oops: or "egghole" as my pic. depicts. :lol: :wink: :roll:

LOL,

love your photography Sammi! with the little captions!

They look like young fish so if you wish to pursue breeding give them time and they will get it right!

Cheers

Naughty fishies. :roll:

thanks guys.... I'm not to worried if they dont succeed as they are in community planted tank.... and I dont have room to separate them but if it happens naturally I will not complain.... its just interesting and great to watch.... I used to love watching my Kribensis look after their babies within a community tank... and now I have guppies breeding like mad in their tank (dicing with nature as cant separate babies as yet)

too many horny fish and not enough tanks to go round... :lol: :lol: :lol:

and Ben I just used the eraser feature in my photo Iplus program as I couldnt work out how to get coloured text on the photo...(i did it once before but can't remember how) had to use some creative nouse... :lol: :oops:
