i cannot clean the tank they are guarding them and you have to be carefull Asiatica are very very agressiv and it could happen that one of the parents after you clean the tank because they will be agitated tryes to kill the other so no clean tank for the moment, by the way i have tons of pics from them i will put them in my page..


Best Regards

Gaetano

thanks for sharing.

Hi,


you can see the eggs on the first pic they buld nest with plants on the surface.
The Fry is growing fast now they look like litte Channa some of them already have the typicall Asiatics spot on the tail.

only breeding report i have ever read was with a tank that size. you should write something up m8
a harmonising pair is a great thing
if they weren't it end up bad in a tank that size
most tanks norml sized tanks i recon.
i lost plenty of channa that way
