It took 2 1/2 years


It took some time get them to pair but they did, Kristine's False perc laid eggs for the first time today, I will try to get a picture of them,They hid them pretty good, I can see them from the side of the nano tank.

Congratulations! How exciting! Are you going to try and raise these or future spawns?

Very cool!

I think my True Percs finally spawned for the first time (2 1/2 years as well) about 3 weeks ago. The male has been in hiding twice now for about 8 of every 10 days. If he comes out momma beats him!

The ones we had in Kansas at the LFS i worked took over 5 years for them to do it. They are still laying out there for them,


it's time for me to start getting my green water , rots and baby brine going again. in someways I like the clowns better then the seahorses when it comes to the fry.

That is way too cool Vinnie, congrats!

Have you seen the Let's Have Babies thread by HendersonRacing? He shows his entire breeding setup and is now selling some of the 300 babies he has.
