Forgotten how much baby bristlenose plecs love cucumber!

It's been a while since I have had a large spawn of bristlenoses (had nearly 1000 of them at one point) as I have cut down my breeding stock.  A few weeks ago my veiltails produced a lovely batch and they are growing on well. 

Last night I put a piece of cucumber in the tank for Daddy and within minutes the swarm of babies was overwhelming!  I had to put another piece in so they could all get a chance.  They were queing up and trying to bump each other out of the way.  Very cute!  One of my favourite sights.
