A. panduro breeding

[rr16]

Well, here are a few shots of my A. panduro pair (I hope!) and their young. The female has just brought them out today as free-swimmers, although she's been moving them for a few days now. Enjoy.

Like the look of your aquarium. Is it Hudrocotyle leucocephala you have as floating plant?
I have Hudrocotyle leucocephala in one tank with Apistogramma trifasciata and now and then Nannostomus fry shows up there.

It is! I have it growing out of the top of one of my other tanks and have had some Nannostomus beckfordi fry show up in there in the last few days!

I also have Pistia, Lemna and Salvinia as floaters too!

Just a few more of the A. panduro pair and their young.

Always fun with fry, its hard to spot the Nannostomus beckfordi fry.
Here is a picture i took of Nannostomus beckfordi fry, this is the first time i saw them this small

A good photo! My camera doesn't work that well close up! Guess I need a macro lens or something. I've seen them like this before as I put some plants with eggs in a net breeder onece before and these were the result. I love when you look at them from below and all you can see is the "Y" shape of the dark lines.

They look so cool when on spawn! Just found this sight the other day

Cool, congrats. I think that the A. panduro female is one of my favourites. It's such an amazing looking fish.
