The other fish had better watch their backs!

It's a joy to see cichlids raise their babies. Have fun with it.

So far its super fun but in all honesty things have gotten more peaceful since they laid eggs they take turns guarding and eating and right now theres at least 6 tetras within 10 inches of the wigglers

Free swimmers. Should a mix of first bites and powdered flakes keep these little guys okay?

So far zero agression issues at all
