I'LL TELL YOU WHY!!!

She layed eggs!!

Wow, I just got them last friday and they've already spawned or w/e you wanna call it(i guess just layed the eggs). I didn't even try! Well wish me luck and any tips would help as I have no idea what I'm doing.

Is there a male in there? IF there is a pair spawning, leave them alone, don't disturb them at all. Rams are notorious egg eaters, and if you disturb them at all they will munch up all the eggs. Chances are they will do that anyway. My two spawning pairs never got over that bad habit of eating their own eggs. Just let things be and see how it goes.
 
If you highlight it it you can read it ;).
 
I tilted my laptop screen to an obscenely oblique angle. highlighting would have worked too...
 
OK OK OK, the color is changed, now what the rams? There is a male and a female in there, but they have just began fighting and i was wondering if i should remove one of them..
 
I wouldn't remove either one. Its part of what they do, if the eggs are still there one of them is probably just tryint get the other's attention so they take care of the eggs. If the eggs are gone, they are going to fight becuase of course they think its the other one's fault. As long as the tank is big enough, which I hope you can post the size in the next response, everything should be fine, but still keep an eye on them.
 
yeah, I would keep them together too. I had a pair once and when I first introduced them, the male harassed the mess out of the female, she took to hiding in plants or caves though so things weren't too bad. Then after a couple of days, it was rare to see the two away from each other.... give them a little time, they'll come around.
 
Yeah, I have a two gallon....



JK JK JK
its a ten gallon wich I KNOW isn't the best, but I was told by many people they would do good in that

and they have stopped fightin, i watched closer and it seemed they would fight over who would fan the eggs lol, now i have lil vibrating eggs and it's amazing...all i can say.. lol, some are wigglers now, by the morning I'm guessing they will mostly all be hatched...
What should i feed?
