Well my very young inka50's were doing well in their grow-out tank. One small male all colored up. The other males...there appear to be a few more....are looking a little femalish without the yellow tint..and are similar to the females.

This morning, I found the little guy and his girlfriend have a spawn of about 8 eggs!!!! Pulling them out of the grow-out tank...he is making life tough for all the others.

I had no idea how early the would spawn...apparently rather young. It seems most of fish like to spawn when I am not ready...isn't that the way it goes!!!!

Indeed and thank you Bev!!!! I guess the best way to breed apistos is not to want them to, yet!!!...seems to work every time....that's 3 out of 3....humm what don't I want to breed next???

But actually I am looking for the ultimate super apisto...a couple of the knock-out color morphs...bitaeniata...trifaciata..those groups and how many others...its getting tough, where to go next? I dont want too many species, just a couple of "top of the line".
