Last night I was out until 3:00 AM. When I walked into the salamander room I noticed that one of my gold albino was laying eggs. Then I walked around to check all of the aquariums and one of my biggest wild-types was also laying eggs! I have been seeing spermatophores all over the tank bottoms for the last few days, so I figured this was coming, but I have never had two spawnings in one night.

Wow, it's neat to actually catch them in the act!Congrats!

Thanks! Yeah, I actually had one more female spawn later in the day (around 6:00 PM) as well, so lots of new mouths to feed.

I usually see them laying eggs while it is happening, probably because I am in the room with them for a good amount of time every day.
