I collected these fish in May 2007 in the Rio Claro of northern Honduras and have finally got them to spawn. I have no idea why it took them so damn long but it was worth the wait. I left about half of the fry in with the parents to hopefully strengthen the pair bond but I was forced to eventually put the divider back up due to the female constantly attacking the male. I am growing the other half out in a seperate tank. I have two more unrelated F0 females so I might give the big guy a little variety and see what happens :D Here are a few pics of the parents.

Thank you all for the kind words. The male no longer has two front teeth. He somehow managed to lose one of them. Im assuming he smashed into something and knocked it out :D He has become beligerently aggressive as some of the fry are still in the tank. Does anyone know if the tooth will grow back? I also have some fry available for sale or trade. Let me know if you are interested.
