Happy's Valentine's Day! Love is in the air. Morning check of the tanks finds mama oto laying eggs. I may have interrupted the courtship as when I was watching, there was papa and two of the juvies all over her. Was quite comical to watch actually. Didn't notice the eggs at first until I was getting ready to feed the snake when I saw a couple eggs on a bottom leave of a L. x. arcuata. On closer examination, found several more eggs there and a couple on the Bacopa. Will find a nice stem that hopefully has a good number on it and move it over to the test tank for a second round.

Over in the test tank, the one fry there is still doing very well. Has colored up very nicely. Diatom growth in this tank has done very well. Ready for another round of fry.
