My pair of orange chromides have wrigglers. Their first spawn and my first time keeping this fish so I hope they get to free swimming stage.

I'm sure you already know they're bi-parental mouth brooders,,, so keep in mind that if you have tank mates in with them, then sometimes the fry can get nabbed when swapping,,, especially while the gobys are still yet to gain experience...
Just to add,,, the fry are absolute master jumpers and find holes that you thought didn't exist.

Awesome - good luck with them. I can't get my pair to do the deed but theyve been inseparable for weeks. Glad to see someone can get them going

Thanks Poncho,

Apparently, it will only take a day or two for the eggs to hatch :D

They need a pretty big shell and some space.
I had some (Rovik's) for few weeks and they had 2-3 batches in a 6x2x2 with only one big shell... We didn't even bother saving the fries unfortunately :(
