    You can contact April by PM, her user ID on here is April or message her through her website www.aprilsaquarium.com

    I prefer PVC over terra cotta as the PVC is non porous which I find gets better hatch rates and less problems with fungus. I make these PVC spawning cones for my discus. They also have a few other features which include sitting off the bottom of the tank slightly which prevents a build up of detritus under the cone and the bottom 2" is ribbed which discourages the females from laying eggs too low down where the larger males have a hard time getting in to fertilize. Also the entire structure is a light colour which will not distract newly free swimming fry.

    Awesome advice, thanks. I have seen a lot of spawning photos using PVC. At the moment I have a clay pot!!!
