Odd breeding behavior

[chris1932]

The female Pebas in question has been breeding for the past five months with four to five week broods. This is the first time however that she has presented her fry to the world outside of her coconut half before they are free swimming. This morning scattered about outside of the shell was her newest brood. The last brood was not as large as normal so I have not pulled them out yet. The new wigglers are doing well dispite their early eviction. They are so small the best I could do was a short video clip.
