just do what you have to i think it will take your new pair a good 5 or 6 more spawns and at least 2-3 months before you get wrigglers (in decent numbers).
till then you dont have to worry about disturbing them.

They didnt seem to have a problem with me in there last night, so thats cool! I switched out light bulbs...I now have a 6700K/10000K dual daylight bulb on from 1-10pm and a second 10000K only bulb comes on from 4-7pm, then back to the dual daylight for the remainder of the photoperiod
Looks really good! IMO! Do you think it would be ok to tackle the installation of the inline heater this weekend, with the discus doing what they are doing based on what you say, and with them not being ready to get things going for real?
Thanks darren burgess

Cool! Thanks ILLUSN! I will do that this weekend
I doubt she is going to take it very well ATM....we are quickly running of room for any baby stuff! lol! Im still hoping the turk is a female, cause I think the ocean is a male...his tube looks like the small pigeons tube, and the big lady used to hang out and hide with the turk all the time in the past I will prolly have a bunch of black peppered pigeons if I was to try to raise some pigeons...just the way my luck is...they would be fat, but prolly pretty peppered up! hahaha
Thanks again! Im uploading the pics to photobucket now

New plants yesterday...so new pics again!
Hope you like!
Sunset Hygro
Dunno what that "shiny" plant is behind the big pigeon??
Rotala Vietnam & Eriocaulon setaceum
Tonina Belem & Alternanthera reineckii Rosaefolia behind the rotala indica
Any suggestions are appreciated! Does anyone think I will have a problem with my tonina? It "waves in the wind" pretty good in that spot
Thanks!

Thanks for the tip ILLUSN!
I will remember the tip about them being peppered if anyone every says anything....although my trials at breeding will prolly be a good ways off yet anyways
I do think I will try my hand at it one day....sounds like a lot of work, but sounds like it would be so fun to try to raise some babies!
Thanks again!

Just snapped a couple pics last night, while BOTH lights were on
When I changed up my timers for the lights the other night, I forgot to change the co2 timer....so the co2 comes on 2 hours before lights, and off an hour before lights off
Thanks
