My adoketas prefer dim lighting. I'm using Maxspect Razor above the tank, but running the lights at 25% Channel A, 10% Channel B
Brothers, can i check with you regarding the lighting of your adoketas tank? I using a clip on light with 6 LEDs. Should be enough right? I notice Adoketas do not like strong lighting.

Anyway, this few days saw my caca female being whacked by the male caca like until very jialat lidat.Not so sure what is the best solution now cause the eggs already laid by the female.
Remove the male if possible as she may be weak to fend herself. Once she stressed, the eggs will be gone. But i hope your female laid eggs on a location only accessible by her. Then can consider leaving the male inside.

Yap first time mum most of the time will eat the first batch of eggs, just maintain good feeding regime and water change, in 2 weeks time they will lay the second batch.
I experience the same with my Hongsloi pair, now second batch of fries, the mum is taking such good care for the 2 weeks old fries that at night she is even able to collect all fries back to the ceramic pot before bringing them out for their meals in the day time. One of the most caring female i have got so fair.
