As long as the parents are not eating the fry I would leave them in together until they start there pre spawning rituals. How large are the fry now? I usually split the fry and parents apart 3-4 weeks after they have hatched and parents are once again ready to make some babies. BTW, welcome to monsterfishkeepers.com

My jags keep eating their fry at about week 2-3. I need to take them out ASAP. They are SO protective when the fry are hatched that they killed 2 pirahnas. Crazy.

I have a different kind of that have breed twice now the 1st time we left her in for about a week after she let them out of her mouth, the 2nd time she had eaten haft the babies before we knew it. Take them out as soon as possible. Trust me they will be gone.

That place is operated by a man called Jeff Rapps. He is one of the most honest and well-renowned dealers in the fish business. You won't regret buying from him.

wckedmidas would be a better source, still. His managuense fry are F1. You can't ask for better...
But does he ship?

The fry came from the same two wild parents. They are therefore F1. All your batches, assuming they came from the same set of parents, are F1.
F2 would arise if your fry matured and you bred them; their fry would be F2.
