LOL I keep spilling info unnecessarily, b/c I am just learning the difference. I'm on over load, my bf looks at me like SHUT UP LOL
If these guys don't make babies for me. I will just go back to keeping them as pets. The breeding part is kind of not for the weak heart.

They're all beautiful, Allie, and if you can get them to spawn and the guys are good daddies, you'll have some fantastic babies!

Great names you gave them!

Is Kingston a Rosetail in addition to being a Halfmoon?

I have them in the breeder tank right now. She was is the tank with him, but he got nasty. So I put her back in her jar in the tank. He is going nuts making bubble nests all over the place and showing off for her.
I figure at the rate he is going with the nests, they'll be ready first thing in the am. I am so please with them.

Allie......The getting a little rough is normal.....It is very rare to have a spawn without some rough play....I'd release her again and let them do the chase game....As long as she has places to hide she will be fine.....I hope it all goes good for you this time......I'm excited to hear the words "I have a successful spawn" Yippeeeeeeeee!
