Nice! Do you have a breeders journal started? if not, you should start one so that you can get a spawn credit!

I have three of these fish (not in the same tank) but no spawns yet. Congrats!

i am on day three of raising fry, i have about 50 of these little guys and so far they seem great. only issue i am probably going to run into is that of my heater. its not being as reliable as i would prefer. anyone have any really great heaters they can recommend?
 
fishtal would you mind posting pictures of your trio?

heater doesn't matter to me as much as putting it on controller of any type. I have both a truetemp and a cobalt temp controller. Like this one:
