Hi, I have a breeding pair of Kribensis in my community tank. They've breed once already, but now keep getting bullied out their favourite breeding cave by my bristle nose catfish. I've tried placing pebbles to reduce the cave entrace size, I've added more caves, but bristlenose finds a way. Any one here had similar and found a solution ? (I don't really want to remove the bistle nose) Rich http://www.richdavies.com http://www.richdavies.com/tropicalfish/

Personally, I'd put the parents into a tank of their own. That way they can spawn and raise their fry in peace. It's a lovely sight to see..... parent fish taking care of their fry as they grow. Here's another great group where you can post without all these crazies that post here. There's no bull to sort through, and all the highly knowledgeable folks have moved to: http://groups.google.com/group/The-Freshwater-Aquarium?lnk=3Dli&hl=3Den
