BNs spawned

My pair of BNs spawned last night theres about 50+ eggs but its hard to tell because they have layed eggs over others. The male is still guarding and fanning them fine and the females just hiding at the other side of the tank.
This is the male is a few weeks old hes about 4" now

That last pic is so cute! He's like "Oi, you, get away from my cave or i'll bristle ya!!"

So cute i'm hoping mine will spawn when the male is bigger

haha. how bigs your male? they can spawn from about 2.5 - 3". The males still in the cave fanning them i haventt seen him stop yet. The females at the other end of the tank eating ever single bit of food she can get lol.

Congrats Kizno thats really good news. Photos are really good. Hope all goes well, how long till the babies hatch?

cheers ill try and get some better pics when the hatch. They should hatch after 4 days but they wont leave the cave untill there yolk sacs are gone at about 10 days old then they should come out in a group with the dad looking for food. :]

Cant wait to see the little ones

Nore can i. Ive been wanting them to spawn since i got them. A few weeks ago i was thinking about setting up a spawning tank for them because i wasnt sure if they just didnt want to spawn with all the other fish around. Ill try and get some pick with my cam soon instead of just on my phone.

Err think my male is about 1.5 inches, so only ickle

I bet your baby BN's will be soo cute at 10days old!!

Wow! Congrats Kiz, hope it all goes well from here on out. Keep the pics coming! Y'know how nosey I am!

Its not gone to well the eggs have come of the side of the cave. hes still fanning them and i cant see and fungus so they will hopefully be ok. but hes nocked them out the caves a few times but luckily none of the fish have ate any.

Oh no! Hope they make it

Fingers crossed that they come good Kiz!

Ive had to put them and the male in a 10G because he kept nocking the eggs out and the angels manged to eat a few. but every single one ive seen so far has hatched there must be atleast 60 of them and there spread over the whole tank because he kept movingthem when he was swimming about. Ive tryed to get some pics but i only have a 5mp camera and they are so tiny. This is what they look like atm

Oh wow! I can't believe they look like that at this point. Fascinating.

There tiny they have a massive yolk sac about 3mm wide and then they are about as thick as a pin and about 3mm long and they have tiny tiny little eyes and tail. Really wierd to watch them hatch. I havent found any that havent hatched they started about 11 last night ands they last one i saw hatched about 1 in the afternoon

It must be great to watch! I don't know if I could tear myself away. Actually, I could - a lass needs her caffeine fix!

haha. I just have the problem of selling 60+ bns now.

You'll manage Kiz! Our wee wheeler dealer.

haha. the only problem is i can sell on hear because you have to be over 16 :[. i might end up giving most of them to my lfs.

Well, even if most of them have to go there at least you've been able to see the process through from beginning to end. What about eBay? Do your parents have an account that they could sell them from? Can you sell something like that on eBay even??
