Spawning Eret video

[Dharma]

Here is a short video of our gobies spawning. Sorry for the shaky footage but I was using a telephoto lense with no tripod

A total of 15 eggs were laid and she picked up 13. This is their first time, so not sure how many will hatch if any at all.

Last night the female was trying to get the males attention so she could pass the larvae... But when the lights went out she was still unsuccessful. This afternoon (day 11) I fed and noticed the female didn't look puffy and the male does! Looks like sometime today she passed the little guys to dad to carry for the next week or so!!!

Here is a picture of dad today.

Update, Day 17:

For fear of losing all the little guys to the petricolas, we pulled the male to the nursery tank where he spit all 13 fry . They are in varying stages of development, so we will see how many survive.

Any tips would be appreciated.

Here is a crummy cell phone picture of the little guys.

That's very interesting that the dad help with the holding process. Learn something everyday.

Very cool mate...what did you decide for feeding your 1st batch? How did your choice go & How many of them are still growing out?
