Sunday:
ok, well on sunday the pair spawned, and luckily all went well. The male left the female practically untouched in terms of finnage damage, and the female even helped gather up the eggs~!!

that was cool. does that container top thing help keep the bubble nest 2gether?

Thanks! Yea, in the breeding tanks you usually put something in there for him to build his nest under, whether it be half of a styrophoam cup, bubble wrap, indian almond leaf, lid, lol, anything that floats really. ive also had males just build there nest under a large leaf of a live plant i had in there. this is actually the first time ive tried the lid one, but id have to say that by far my favorite would be the half of a styrophoam cup. this kinda lets you look above the nest, too. hehe.

or under a pot... lol
