See baby. Break into baby talk. I think it's a compulsion, genetically hardwired.

goo goo. gaa gaa. This little piggy (pull first available toe) went to market...(wave toe, giggling maniacally)

(oops, see what I mean?)

They really are adorable. Particularly considering they are a species that gives every appearance of not being from the same planet as us warmblooded hairy types. :)

Super cute! If only they'd stay alive for me... Must try harder I guess. How are you getting them to breed? *jealousy kicks in*

Cool!

It seems that I have a breeding colony in my Fluval 305. Can't get them to breed in my tank, but I can in my canister filter. :shrug:

Yeah, i have had 2 broods hatch out on my QT tank. Maybe I'll add some substrate and driftwood, and leave them in there.

Thanks for the props everyone!
