My 6 males are in a tank that has fine gravel and a dense mat of babytears
so moving gravel would take quite a bit of effort for these teeny guys
(about 1" TL). I haven't seen any evidence that they want to move gravel
<G>...and they aren't cave spawners like Badis. Darios are supposed to spawn
in vegetation (like a clump of java moss). We'll see <G>. The females are in
a tank with sand bottom but they haven't shown any tendency to move sand.
They are more interested in scarfing up mosquito larvae!
