Just spotted a spawn in the St Isabel/ Rio Negro cross pair up tank....I got the male out first and put him in a 30gal, that I had ready...then caught the female and snagged the slate in one trip....all are safely in the 30 now, and after a pause to get their bearings, and eyeball the slate/eggs....they're back fanning them....whew.....
there's at least one more pair in there, maybe two...???
..............
While I was fussing with that, I noticed that the Black veils had spawned again too...so I yanked that slater and into the 2 1/2gal it went....they don't parent raise and I wanted another batch...
then....the Manacapuru and Mana/PB silver ghost spawned....sheesh, they're on their own...LOL..as well as the Koi/Sunset that were laying as I walked by.....I've been doing some heavy protein feeding the last week or so....dividends paying off..... 8)

Well, couple white's on the black's spawn slate...the St Isabel/Rio Negro eggs look real good..maybe one white, but she's keeing them tended well...
the others are getting the fan treatment.....we'll see....?? 

After I pulled the St Isabel/Rio Negro's...another pair layed on the sponge riser tube and the rest are fighting over the slate...cripes....getting nasty in there....
