I've just added a new short article to the website entitled The Spawning of
Sewellia sp. 'spotted' & Fry Growth Development:

I hope you all enjoy it, and sorry it's taken so long for me to document properly! The composite picture did take some time to sort out (not least because of the way I file my photos) but the end result was well worth it.
An absolutely stunning species, whatever its stage in life.

Brilliant article Emma! Well done for the spawning but also the documentation of it and the fry growth.
I wish I could read Vietnamese because I have a feeling that these
Sewellia sp. spotted are one of the three
Parasewellia species described in a Vietnamese book I have. The three species described there could all be the same, the differences appear minor (although to be fair I can't read the text). Based on what I can glean the
Sewellia sp. spotted may be
Parasewellia polylobata.

Outstanding, Emma. How wonderful to have this kind of visual chronology, clarity, and detail. The river tank works!
PS, the links and design also work. Nice job.

Fabulous job Emma
I edited the species description as it still read "Not yet bred in aquaria". The article is now linked.
