Post by: Mugwump on December 30, 2012, 10:58:15 AM
As you know, we lost great grampa BN the other day, so I put a good sized long fin albino male in with great grandma...LOL...she hammered him, then they went into the 'are you good enough to spawn with me' dance....this morning, he's a little worse for the experience...but he's fanning eggs....LOL...what a gal !!!....

Great grandma has all my respect.  She's still hot to trot.  I bet the young guy didn't know what hit him.  Wham, bam, thank you sir and he found himself in charge of fanning eggs ;D   

She is a fine breeder, Mug.  Do any of my little guys go back to her?

"He thought she was a pleco and found out she is a cougar." "Queen of the wood"//you guys are hilarious!
So sorry to hear about great grandpa pleco! But, this is a good part of the story! I may get some lf bn abino's from you in the spring if you still have any. I've been looking for some. Good luck with your cougar granny and her new brood!
