Title: Finally have fry!
Post by: Steve on June 22, 2013, 11:17:25 PM

I have fry for the very first time since getting back into Cichlids. I moved my yellow lab that was holding into her own 20g tank last week and was planning on stripping her this weekend if she didn't finally spit. I checked on her today and noticed six of these little guys swimming around nice and healthy looking. Pretty cool, first time I have had a fish breed in my tanks.

Must have been some hiding last night because just went down to feed them again and now I count at least ten  :)

Just thought I'd post a new pic. They are all 10 doing very well and growing already. Started them out on frozen brine shrimp but now they are eating flake food the past few days.
