Here is a video of the spawning sequence, same as the photos above. This pair does not make a bubble nest and the male removes all eggs during spawning to be reared under a leaf. Notice how the female can both swivel and rotate her eyes, like some kind of mechanical submersible vehicle – something I had not really noticed until making this video. The video was filmed at 50% speed to allow for very smooth observation. Be sure to watch in HD. It is a joy to photo and video them and share on this forum 🙂
