Perfect Photos! Well done!

Out of those Photos you have 5m/9fm

In consecutive order from top to bottom...
fm,fm, fm, m, fm, m, m, m, fm, fm, fm, fm, m, fm

I would pull the 3 biggest males and leave them in a tank of their own or separate 2 and one in a breeder net. Then let the 2 other males do their thing for a month. You'll have fry soon after that as long as you pump them full of food. Ikola don't seem to need as many calories as others to produce regularly.

Good job Andrew...I ended up with 6M & 8F but a number of them could go either way for me due to inexperience and the probability that not all of the females have spawned yet so the vent is not nice and round...all the best Ben
