Just a thought from my experiences.....Xenos are good spawners but very very hard to succeed as they hardly hold the eggs long enough for you to strip them. Only TWICE have I only managed to succeed getting some fries 10+ years ago. Lately attempts on Xeno ochrogeny had all failed. I think due to 2 factors >> 1) Tank not big enough for them to hide after spawning, 2) Not enough school of Xenos.....would preferably have 2 males/8~10 females so the mated female can have more breathing 'space' after spawning as the males can harass the others instead. IMO.
