well, its been a good 36 hours since i first spotted the egs... between last night and this morning they started disapearng, and now appear to be gone altogether (theyre in a hard spot to look at - i have to crane over the back of the tank and its always kinda distorted) - but the female is still defending the general area vigorously, and the male is doing the same... im going to assume she ate them, unless shes managed to hide the larvae from me somewhere... the eggs never turned white - they were pinkish-ivory the whole time, unless that happenned last night sometime... ah well... was fun while it lasted... maybe next time... -joel ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the apistogramma mailing list, apisto@majordomo.pobox.com.
