Okay, I've seen them spawn in the L. arcuata high up, but he spawned down at the bottom. I got some Hygro balsamica so they should like that.

The killies tend to lay eggs high up on plants (Water sprite is great for them). Best success I've had with that fish was to simply feed the tank till fry started showing up, then move the parents to another watersprite-laden tank. For bottom-of-the tank spawners like gardneri, blue gularis, most other aphyosemions, the presence of the MTS means very little luck getting the fry to show up _________________________________________________________________ Windows LiveT: E-mail.
