Seriously think the white plate is making them crazy
Lights on...gravel with eggs,lights out...gravel moved.Just started leaving tank light off with room lighting to see what's going on...they're a lot happier.

Update on eggs.
1am they were there....8 am they weren't. That simple.No indications anything was going to happen...parents swimming around now like "eggs,what eggs".
Oh Well...that's Oscar spawning.We'll see how the next one goes

Looks like soon...already scrubbing and locking.Figure about another 10 days,give or take.
Guess they could go again sooner,but wouldn't think she'd be in condition before then.

At the rate we're going Alan maybe we should start a joint effort
Wonder if Ringo would rather fly coach or First-Class....of course he's so

,he'd start an "international incident".
