its crazy ,actually got them as juvies in a pet store for 8 bucks a piece, i put them together in a 37 river biotype and they where very aggessive torwards each other ..so i seperated them thinking i had 2 males..well i needed to free up a tank and through them in a 55 ,thinking they would be alright because of the size of the tank well as soon as i threw ,what i thought was a small runt male,,they started digging like crazy and a couple of days later they had made a nest and are now breeding ,, also my water is at about 74 degrees.witch i thought was to low for breeding,,but i guess not,,what do you keep you temp at when breeding your block heads?
