Hey All,

Thank you for the comments :D

Well they have settled in to thier new home very nicely and spawned last night. The male is quite agressive towards the female once eggs have been laid, but it's nothing to serious.

McCloughlin, I havn't raised any fry from this pair yet as they where in a community tank for thet past 4-5 spawns and the fry where chomped each time they became free swimming ... to be expected really ... fingers crossed this time :wink: Although with my busy schedule at the moment, I'm just happy they are spawning.

EXAI,

Yep new tank mate, just a stock 3fter. As you saw they where not the happiest in the Jebo ... skittish and not spawning ... not sure why though, all water specs where spot on ... just one of those things.

Although the Jebo has been put to good use for my Angels :wink:

Here is a pic of the RT spawn and thought I would throw in a pic of the Jebo for good measure LOL.

Cheers,

Dee. :)

Lovely Red Turk's Discus D !!

Hopefully you can breed them.

The Jebo tank with angels is also very nice.

Good Job.
Cheers. :D
