My new Ancistrus Rio Tocantins male dropped his eggs :p




And I have a spawn from my Panaqolus sp. L397 at the moment. Very happy :y_smile_g

Panaqolus sp. L397 fry

Great looking juvie, Jac.
How is the rest of the clutch ding, you had some problems right?

cheers, Daniel

Hi Daniel,

I did have problems with these Panaqolus fry yes... The same problem as with my first spawn, bloated yolk sacks. I don't know what causes this to happen. All fry that were with the male in the cave had this problem, the two fry I raised separate (because the male kicked them out during hatching) are fine. I did manage to save 6 fry of the 70+ fry, which isn't much but better then nothing at all :) These 6 are doing very well!

Here are two which I caught today:
