Default It must be something in the water
Having had a few quiter weeks, my fish have really got it on

My Jewels have just laid, my Brevis have fry, my Dwarf Blue acara's are showing signs again, one of my Egyptians look like they have a mouthful of eggs and the one I'm really pleased about is one of my Celebes Buntingi (Sarasin's minnow) has a clutch of eggs in its fins.

Tried to take a pic of the Sarasin's as they look so wierd, but not able to get one so here's a great page off the net:

i wondrer if the high/low pressure affects wild birds too, there appears to be quite a few trying to start a second brood.

Make sure you don't do it the way Dave does, that won't work.
