I have a lot of wood in my 200 liters tank, the same where I breed my BN's.

my male P.maccus is stuck in a hole for days now, I tried to put the wood upsidedown to see in it, but this is too big and I don't want to bother daddy maccus, it seems that he takes care of something... babies pleaaase!!

In every loricarids, is it always the male that takes care of the eggs??

can't take a good picture where he is, he seems to have talent to find really quiet places to breed!:lol:

Yes its always the male who takes care of the spawn. Mum just goes off and eats lots of food so she can get gravid for the next spawn.

Would be great being a female plecos. Eat ya head off, drop a few eggs, eat some more...
