weird sometimes that fish also has mood on spawning. 1 pair of black didn't have much mood previously, despite the male always eager to spawn. It yields to a number unsuccessful spawns. this is because the female is way larger than the male, pretty understandable....
but these couple of days, i noticed that they spawned a number of times with lots of fry in the tank. it seems, once the "cycle" begins, they just keep doing it....just like a number of giant spawns
at the moment, 3 pairs are having the continuous spawnings and i just dont bother to stop them. another 1 pair is getting to know each other and may spawn tomorrow, otherwise the female just gonna burst with eggs :)
could it be that the female is getting horny when she sees how capable the male was (proven by a bunch of fry around him), or is it just the weather and mood affecting this spawning experience?
no doubt, the experienced breeders would just spawn right away. that's pretty much given, but the newbie seems to have their own ups and downs so frequently, i started to think that it's the combination of weather and experience....
