Looks good, I see a ram in last pic, are u gonna take him out?
Be prepared for 100's of jars around the house lol!
Just a suggestion: If i were you i would take all the gravel out because if the fry drop out of the nest and fall into the gravel, dad wont be able to retrieve them and they will die.

Well, the ram won't be in the breeding tank, lol. The male is in the same tank as the ram right now though (the 15g). Thanks for letting me know that the gravel was a bad idea.

Update:
I picked up one of those sponge filters. Its an Elite double sponge filter. Its a little tall, but I managed to get it in.
