..Stick doing angels, Cories,and BN here, but we've added some different strains of guppies now too...Synodontis Petricolas in the 130, but no spawns that we can see in there...
My angels and discus lay eggs regularly, but no hatching in our hard water, which is fine by me. My only fry being born and growing up are my Endlers. I still really enjoy them.

....those are your green endlers, right?.....when cooler weather hits, I may grab some from you ;D
Jon what are you using to spawn your petericolas I use buckets 1 I cut the bottom out and put mesh in the other one is complete 1 lid with a 1 inch hole in it put the mesh bucket inside the other and dark marbles on mesh 2 thick.take out every week and I have 100s of them they take a long time to get to 1 inch then they grow a little faster I have 2 groups one about 30 and another about 20 the 20 are f-1 don't see a difference in them but those and the multis are some of my favorite fish

Yes let us know what size buckets. I still have all of the petros I got from Jon a while back. Might give them a try.
Not raising anything but BNs right now. May pull some angel eggs soon. I'm actually quite happy with things the way they are right now though. mim mim mim
NOt raising anything....but my Bolivian Rams have spawned a 3rd time...this time on the sponge filter's sponge!!

.....water temp recommended ?.....grass over the mesh ?
No grass between 78-80 you have to empty otherwise the young will eat eggs that get laid after they hatch only takes 3 days for eggs to hatch they are tiny but eat huge
Willie was fooling around in fry tank with these had some 21/2 inchers in there and did the same thing with butter tubs had some fryfrom those to
