I have taken some pics of the eggs I have removed. Taken with my phone so not great but you get the idea.

Very cool. Do you know how long before the babies hatch? Make sure you post pictures of the new babies!

Thanks everyone for the comments.

I am basing the hatch times around the same sort of time for Arrowheads. so about 4 days left now.

I will of course stick up some pics when they have hatched.

Isn't this the first documented breeding of Baileyi ever? You should get a better camera man :) And measure water conditions, temperature, Ph etc...

He says that he has all the perams. I agree with the better camera part though.

I have a sample of the water. I haven't measured the perams yet. Yes my camera is rubbish. The pics of the eggs were taken on my phone. I need a new digi cam.

They should only be a couple of days from hatching now :D

Can't you borrow a better cam from somebody? Relatives, friends etc?

Darnit jelly... I'm almost thinking about posting you my camera, we are in desperate need for some nice pictures of this big event :)

At least I am...

I agree, if this is the first spawning and breeding of these puffers then we need hi quality evidence to document it. I would try and borrow one if I were you ;)
