the question is not really "how can i get my kribs to spawn" as much as "how can i stop them from breeding," assuming you have one male and one female. this was the first non-livebearer that ever bred for me. they bred 3 times before i gave them away. i hated them also for being such good parents and keeping all my other fish confined to one corner of the tank. tsuh yang chen, nyc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the apistogramma mailing list, apisto@majordomo.pobox.com.
