After a few spawns with no success, finally I've have a bunch of adoketa fry swimming around. I don't know what's other people experience with these species, but the only way I got the eggs not to fungus was wit a pH under 5.

As you can notest, the water is very, very brownish...

sweet! I'm working on hatching some myself! They layed once so far and the eggs lasted atleast a few days but I can't say what happened after that. good luck with the fry- my waters the same color!

There's an interesting thing i noticed, the pair is more highbodied than any adoketa I've seen. it seems to be closer in shape to I. bimaculatus but that's just me being hopeful. :)
Congratulations on the spawn! getting viable spawn from adoketa is a real bother.
