signs of spawning?

[peregrinus]

sure thing sweetpea.. i'm just try to figure out if they are going to breed.

I have a pair of 4 stripes that spawn bout the new moon and full moons each month. They do this little jerky dance and he trys to intice her over to the glass/nest ( they like the glass on the front rleft corner) As a matter of fact the new moon was 2/17 and last night we had eggs when I came home from work. Next time I see them doing it I'll try to get a video.

I would LOVE to see a video Sarah!

we have eggs now but the full moon is not that far away I'll see what I can do! but they are sneaky critters~ I never see them lay just do the dance! hehe I guess they like thier privacy! wonder if there is a market for fishy sex vids! mmmmmmmm just a thought! lol

I got a pair of gsm in my 75 that seem to do a little dance around each other then they go apart...the one hides under this shelf but if there are eggs or what i couldn't tell you i will be tearing the tank apert in about a week to do some much needed maintence and upgrades so i hope i don't mess anything up there.

[peregrinus]

from what i understand that if they are spawing and their enviroment changes they stop and it can take a long time for them to start again. one more question for people with BTA's how often do you feed them?

[Sweetpea]

For me, intentional weekly feedings, but my GSM likes to steal food from it (weird?). I'm not exactly sure how much the BTA was able to ingest.
