Hi Pavel
First of all I think its really great news that they already spawned 🙂 .. I really hope that the eggs will develop fine and you will be able to have more of this fine little species, after all the trouble you did to have them.
Its unusual to place the eggs like that, I am sure, but I would take as perhaps either the confusion of a recently wild caught and perhaps even very young parent.
Or perhaps its saying something about how they actually can do in the natural environment, – I mean, my parvelus males are always hanging around inside the caves I gave them, but of course in nature, perhaps theres no such ‘nice’ cave around, and then if they want to breed, they probably find all other kind of places.
But its unusual in the way that the eggs seems to be set on the side with no bubble nest to really hold it 🙂 ..
