Jon, when prepping the adults to spawn do you keep the temp up near 80?

I think a cool water change brings on a spawn, if they're ready. Sterbias are a stout breed and can take discus like temp's.....most corys can't..

Jon is right my Sterbias norm temp. is 78. I do a cool water change and most of the time tey will spawn.

I had a few hatch in the last 30hrs or so, but didn't make it. With the holiday I haven't been home a lot hopefully some more will hatch and ill be here to feed them. Did a water change and put a few vinegar eels in tonight. If it doesn't work out atleast ill be ready for next time.
