RE: spawn aid
I generally thought that was cooler RO water and some bits of mosquito
larvae and brine! ;-)

Spawn Aid is the name of a liquid made by a company I can not think of
right now. You put a teaspoon per ten gallons in your tank three times a
week and suposedly it helps entice fish to spawn and it helps the
development of the eggs.

Ok...this is my first post on the list so here goes. I have two pairs of
Apistogramms cacatuoides that I am keeping in planted tanks with RO water
and CO2 injection. I am feeding them blood worms and brine shrimp. I
change 25% of the water about once a week. I keep the temp at 79 or so. I
don't have any fish in with them that would be a threat...just bristlenose
plecos and stuff like that. I can't seem to get them to spawn for me...any
ideas on what I can do. I am already using spawn aid as someone had
recommended that to me. I use a 10 pound CO2 bottle and I recently found
out that the connection between the solenoid and the needle valve is
leaking. Anyone know of a good compound and something to stop that leak?
Also...my kribs that I just got a few days ago have about 40 eggs! I have
nevertryed to raise kribs before, bu they should be fun. Any ideas anyone
has would be appreciated.
