And the happy couple:


The day of the event:


And the dark nemesis intent on caviar brunch:

(see the eggs stuck on the glass? She gottum, but missed the one on the leaf.)

Got a 40 gallon nursery going. Maybe 30-40 eggs look viable and they should be hatching any day. What a way to start into fancies, eh? *LOL* I can't get just one foot in. Oh no. Just gotta jump in with both feet and a wetsuit......

I suppose the ranchu is a female. Wasn't in the least interested in the spawning other than the banquet that ensued.....

Love the pics! They are wonderful aren't they? Nice to have in the office. Im in a 7x11 foot office with no window. I have to have something to make me smile, right?

Glad to see you found this other hobby. It's quite enjoyable!

Blessings,
Ethan
