Re: Epi grahami?

        Gee Doug, those are my fish in question right?  I haven't been able
to stop my grahami from producing eggs.  My fish room is pretty full, and I
have been ill lately, so I had cut down to one feeding a day to slow egg
production for most of my fish.  But my grahami still produced eggs.  They
never seem to eat them either, so I am reluctant to suggest predation as the
problem.  Yours have a better diet than mine.  I usually feed frozen brine
twice a day with maybe a bit of bbs once or twice a week.  Maybe they are
just still a bit too young.  How big is your male?  I find mine breed well
when they reach close to three inches.  The only real difference is mine
have a high tds and a temperature about 70-72F.
