A pail of cold water from the previous owner hahaa... bro I told my frens n family they will take another 6 more months for them to mature pair and spawn as they are still very young... when I took over from u they were just 3.5" big... 2.5wks later doing mating dance n 2 more days later which is today lay eggs liao I oso suspect they are too young n not matured yet nevertheless its a pleasant surprise... ok shall take yours n bro kiang advice... leave them as it is n c how they develop... will be super bonus if next 2 wks eggs turn dark with larvae n hatch to fries... but I think most likely eggs will turn white without proper fertilisation... so far the pair are doing a very good job prorecting n fanning the eggs... well done Red Trooper

Hahaa yalor... no worries... I will monitor very closely... the main objective is to make sure this pair can lay n hatch... if confirm then there will be many chances to spawn again but this time will be in a dedicated breeding tank
