            Man...that second video looks like a WWE Tag Team match !! Two fights at the same time in the same tank.

                      I took quite a few videos. They're not great, but I'm uploading one on Photobucket now. I had to stand pretty far away or else Mama would get upset, so it's a bit grainy and not wonderful looking - I had to zoom in from about 8 feet away with my arms way above my head, lol. They're at the bottom front of the tank, so it's tough to capture. But there's some really cool behavior from the mom and the babies. Unfortunately, I didn't get a shot of Mama defending them from other adults that would come too close - that was neat to watch.

                      I'm so happy she finally decided to spit, though! It seems she was under that rock for much longer than a month. But I guess that's the "watched pot" syndrome - I looked every day to check if she'd FINALLY spit. )

                            I got 20 of these ugigi fry from Geoff last summer. They are 2" now and starting to dance. Can't wait till march so I can put them in the 300gal pond. When I bring them in in October hope to have over 50 fry or more. What I noticed about brichardi's is how many fry the female will release. I've counted 12 from one female. My pineapples never released more than 5-6 at most.
