>What are spawning mops? I think I have seen a few, but are they home made,
Yes you can make your own no worries. Get some wool (the type you would use
to knit with, using a natural colour - brown or green preferable), cut some
2 dozen odd strands at the same length, say 15cm. Group the threads together
and tie the ends off with a bit of fine wire. Use the wire as a hook also,
this wal you can hang it on the side of the tank. The other alternative is
to use a cork at the top so you can float it.

>and if so how? Can they be bought from Aquarium shops?
No, I havent ever seen any. Most people are so ignorant that it wouldnt even
occur to them that fish breed. They are easy and cheap to make.

Too bad about your house. Looks like you now have a holiday house as well as
a residential property. Did you have a good weekend?
