This morning i've got a chance to watch one of my melano HMPK male spawning with its distant distant niece given to me by LDZ (rooted from same line). Despite the female is a steel blue carry melano, I kinda like her since she's one of those OHM female with very nice spread. She's battered beyond recognition on how beautiful she was before the spawning takes place. she is 8 rays, so I'd expect quite a number of long fin coming out of this spawn, considering the male has long fin gene.
Anyway, it amazes me sometime to see how pro they are in spawning. In the instance the female meets the male under the nest, the male managed to wrap her, stay idle, then poof, lots of eggs coming out.
This is different with other pairs that I've seen where it took a good couple of times turning and wrapping before they get it "right".
