Just thought I'd share... I know they are not hard to raise but everytime they have fry I am amazed!

Hey, I'm an old time cichlid keeper myself! Congrad on the kids. And it looks to me like there is plenty of food to keep them alive. Did they breed in the clay pots? ------------- Jon https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6y_EzjI_ljbIwf2n5uNzTw" rel="nofollow - What I've been doing... |

Thanks Jon. I've had the parents for about 2 years now. I have raised one batch of fry when they were in a 10 gallon and the laid the eggs on the lace rock and I had to feed baby brine for a few weeks. I have since moved and they moved up to a 25gallon tank with driftwood and live plants instead of the lace rock. They were hesitant to lay the eggs in the cave in the driftwood so I put in the pots in hopes they would use them but they didn't. I'm really glad I let the tank get so overgrown it has provided a great food source, I am way too lazy to hatch brine....
