Surprise! In the aquarium with my Pseudolithoxus tigris L257...

... there are offspring again. But this time from the second species that has recently moved in there (and which also occur together syntopically in the upper Orinoco catchment area), namely my

Micracanthicus vandragti L280

Hooray, a first clutch of eggs. And even if the picture is lousy, I'm really pleased. Or as Markus (Kaluza) would say: That's fast: Micracanthicus vandragti eggs: CHECK And indeed, the eggs are huge. Incidentally, they spawned in one of these small special caves, diameter 2.5-3 cm, approx. 6-7 cm long, although smaller sizes were also available.
