[GSAS-Member] Frisky Serpaes?

["A JACOBSON" <amjacobson52@msn.com>]

Okay, so I've got 3 adult Serpae Tetras that came with a tank I bought.  Not 
really fond of them, they never particularly stand out but they don't bother 
the fish that I do like, so I've kept them.

Then this evening I notice that they look different!  Rather, 2 of the 3 look 
different.  Suddenly they have a deep body color, rather than looking a little 
washed out, and the blacks!  They are so intense!  And they are holding their 
dorsal fin erect, like flags, and they are soooo black!  I can compare them 
with the 3rd, which looks the same washed out color I'm used to.  And one of 
them is looking distinctly rounded in the belly!

So are they getting ready to spawn?  If they do manage to spawn, do I then 
remove the plants they spawned on?  And then what?  Or do I just leave any eggs 
in the aquarium and let them provide a little taste treat for the angelfish and 
the cherry barbs.
