Thanks! This is the fifth clutch for me, and the last egg is hatching right now. Have another clutch incubating, and I think the female is gravid again. And yes, they are tiny when they hatch out.

You are on a roll. What is the secret? You sure seem to be doing something right, those little pgymy's are super cute. I would love to see your set up if that is ok.

Night time temperature drops seemed to do the trick for me (among other things)- I got eggs out of them a month after I moved them into my basement. Their color, behavior, and appetite also improved once I moved them into the basement. A very well-planted tank is also essential so that you can provide plenty of visual barriers. If the male and female are in constant sight of each other, they seem to stress each other out. Also, giving them a varied diet is always helpful.

Nice!! Looks like you are having great success with them!

Thankfully, I can say that I have been having success with them. You need a very gentle touch, a lot of patience, and close attention to small details. Just trying to increase the size of my breeding colony right now.
