They have continued the spawning dance at regualr intervals for weeks, but alas ive yet to see a bubble nest in the tank....I may have more luck once i move as im selling all my fish and tanks bar the 65gall.

This will purely have Ctenopoma and Hoplos and nothing else...so there should be nothing to eat the nest/eggs before i can get to it and secure it in a trap
