I have a 65 gallon with 10 peacocks, and a random Day Glow pair which seem chill enough to keep the peace in the tank.
Well, after hearing splashing all morning by my desk this morning, and watching my male turn a BEAUTIFUL dark yellow, chasing his lady friend around, he emerged from behind the rocks with his girl bearing one **** of a large brooding mouth sack!
Now, this isnt the first time its happened, but it is the first time I can precisely ID when the mating happened. In the past (twice to be exact), I havent monitored so the babies mysteriously disappear (or are eaten). Now that I know from Day 1, I want to know exactly what I need to do to secure this brood.
What do I need to do?
Here are some pics of the lovely couple minutes after consummating!
