The funniest thing...

["Eric Martina" <emartina@uiuc.edu>]

Hi all,
	I am going to ship out a pair of A. cacatuoides "Triple Red" to someone
tomorrow. So I put the pair in one of those floating live bearer boxes this
evening so they wouldn't get any food when I feed the rest of tank. You
know, clear plastic boxes where you put the female guppy in when she is
about to give birth and the babies fall through a plastic grate to the
bottom where the female can't eat them. Anyway, it has a divider so I put
the divider in and had the male on one side and the female on the other.
Just before going to bed I checked on them and they had spawned! Some of the
eggs are on the divider, but a lot of them fell to the bottom. I wonder if
the male was able to fertilize them? How can I tell if the eggs are
fertilized? I knew she was ready to spawn but I didn't think she would do it
after being netted and through in a small box!

I just thought this was humorous,
Eric
