Great idea-will do that, i only have the other two females in there plus some Millers Thumbs(4)but the male chivvies these away if they get too close,and there are 4 small minnows as well-about 1cm in length.....As i hope you will have guessed its not a small tank but im still surprised the male actually built a nest let alone bred!...Even now he remains in breeding colours and although he used to keep the other fish away, he lets the one female who looks ready to lay again nuzzle him on his side and tries to usher her towards the nest,but then he remembers he has young and pushes her away..fascinating stuff...was wondering will he build a new nest or will he just refurbish the old one?
