Loachmom,
A few weeks ago whilst cleaning the oblonga tank I decided to move my 3 kullie's to my community tank. Lost two of them, don't know why, so on Friday I decided to give the community tank a good clean out. I removed every thing including the gravel. There was a little water and some debris ...

More recently, as pictures provided I had my second litter,

Loachmum,
Sorry but no live bearers in tank, but I do have gravel, and I think that is at least one of the keys, as it allows the eggs protection from being eaten.

I,ve come to the conclusion that it is definately not a second spawning.
Friday is my water change day and it stresses the fish, so when you take photo's they look pale.
This week I done the water change on Wednesday and tonight they look, well like Pangio's should.

loachmom,
wishing you well with them, you may have to change your username to pangiomom.

loachmom,
I believe they are all from the same spawning, as I said the size differance is amazing and the quality of pictures dosn't show this.

A second spawning, now you've got me thinking?

Update,
baby pangio's are all doing well, the differance in size is starting to worry me slightly I hope the pictures below show the differance.

Update
I first logged on to this site, when I was looking for some advice I reckon I had a baby pangio in my tank. That gave me 8 in total and I added 8 khulies [strippey's as my grandaughter called them]. After several attempts and differant experiments to get them to breed I had almost given up. A ...

They also like to root about in stones,
