this pair is a gift earlier this year from my Bruneian friend. Hold twice but not successfully. Here the male trying to woo the female again.. picture taken few days ago.
hahaha.. last last week, I have 3 males in the community tank at home brooding. Bravo ate the eggs followed by Charlie.. balance Alpha is holding.. this Tuesday, giant male is holding but he ate yesterday.. as of this morning, Alpha male is still holding and Charlie male holds as well.. lol.. but I forsee only Alpha male will be successfully which I hope so as the last batch he had have already grown to 1inch.
Oh my gosh, what a gorgeous fish! I have never seen the like. If I wasn't content with my 2 Splendens, I'd want one of those. Of course, I have nowhere near the time to try and breed... But wow. Congrats!

thanks.. you should try but they need cool water for long term.. 20-26degC. I am lucky to know a Brunei friend who is specialised in Macrostoma.. all my macrostomas are from him.
thanks.. yes. they are costing 200-250usd a pair.. given the right condition, they outlive the splenden and they can be housed together as well provided you have a bigger tank and some hiding spaces.
well, I wasn't able to some 13years ago.. I am sure you will. its the equipment that is more expensive. chiller, tank canister etc. but once you get it.. you will realise your 200 dollars are well spent.
2nd batch in the bags as they are being moved from office to home...
