I was able to witness the complete Parvulus mating dance today!! Amazing!
Unfortunatly it seems they are spawning under an oak leaf and I will not be able to observe the nest, and egg developement, as I am afraid to disturb the leaf.
Maybe if lucky he might move it all to a cave?
Oh well, I hope to someday see babies. I did drop the pH to 3.5 in time for this spawning.
15 minutes later:
So they haven’t spawned yet and I moved the leaf enough that I’m hoping he selects the cave. She is quite plump and very yellowish ,sticking close to him.
hour later:
Both fish have moved to the cave! I just moved (had to put my hand in the tank to move it… they both ignored me) the leaf he liked is now resting on top of the Bamboo. They are in the cave now so I’m staying away, I’ll know how well they did if he begins quarding the entrance and running in and out.
