Wow congrats to yet another successful spawning.

Frys all disappeared after a week.

Notice that they were busy clearing another spot last night.

This time round, separated the inkas.

The pair bred again this morning ....
Round#2 but not in time to replace the sponge on the filter inlet.
Current sponge is the coarse type, frys could get stuck.

Male guarding over eggs

Female, just hanging around. But she is the fierce one, will attack any intruder, including hands.

Beautiful!

Exactly the same thing I'm about to do. Got a pair of electric blue rams in my 3feet and planning to buy a pair of inka50 or borelli opal tomorrow

How big is your pair? Mine's probably still too small, female keeps running away when the male chases & flares

I tested my water parameters

pH- 6.5
gH- 5
Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - 0
kH - 1

Really soft water, trying to coax them into breeding. feeding fried blackworms and hikari cichlid gold.
