After 3 years my picassos are finally breeding. This is the first clutch that I've noticed but I'm thinking its not their first. It's a good sized clutch and its laid pretty tight like they've done this before.
This pic is from yesterday. If you look close you can see the silver eyes. They are crappy pics but it's the best that I could do with my phone. If they don't hatch tonight I'll break out the macro lens tomorrow and get some decent shots.
They were laid on 07/07, unfortunately I'm not ready to raise this clutch. I expect them to hatch today or tomorrow. I've been gathering everything I need to hopefully get the next clutch going. I should have my rotifers going by the end of the week. This will be my first go at raising fry so it will be a learning experience. I will use this thread as a log to track my progress. The picassos are the first of four pairs to lay, hopefully the others will start soon also. I'll try to get some good pics of the proud parents tomorrow.
