The fry are free swimming now.  My camera's resolution is not strong enough for a detailed photo.  The fry are so small.  The mother chews food and spits it out through her gills to feed them.

A word document of my experience with A. cactuoides.  It is a great fish for a "New World" community tank.

I enjoyed the pictures and reading your write-up!  I have a few types of dwarf cichlids, too, and probably need to take them out of my community tanks, if I want them to breed.

They might breed in a community tank.  These two did.  I moved them into a 90 gallon and they had a second batch.
