HI Dr V,

they are a pair but have never had a succesful spawn. I have seen them work the cone before but to date zilch babys

I have much patience for these fish so in due course and fingers crossed they will develop into a nice parenting pair!

gday guys

today I used a product called Bio Chem Zorb. Within in one hour the tank started to lighten and the tannins were going.

upon returning home some 5 hours later the tank is Crystal Clean. I have never ever had it this clean before.

Thouroughly recommend it.

You can buy it through APW online. It arrived within 2 days. :D :D
