2 mommas holding "NOW WITH PICS"

[Cesar]

Well it has begun, I had a Blue Zambian (Gibberosa) momma holding for close to 12 days. I did a major water change on Tuesday to find 3 eggs floating, I guess she spit them out. I was able to save two of them and put them in a make shift egg tumbler Ill post pics later tonight.  I woke this morning to find another female holding, I dont know if its the same clutch that she picked up or Ive got a busy male . Either way it looks like its started, Ill post pictures of them tonight along with the eggs

you can tell the difference between my Mobas and the Zambians, my male Moba isnt ready yet so I know he is not the father. Iam seeing different fish holding so Iam thinking its the from the same clutch, I dont know why they are picking the eggs up I guess they are trying to surrogate.

last picture?? no thats a piece of cardboard that covers open areas of the tank. Iam excited I want them to learn to hold, but they get spooked easily.

my fronts will usually start holding about a week apart so that sounds about normal.
