Both sets of eggs hatched one in a pit made of stone, the other in a pit made of wood - guess male red terrors aren't monogomus more like opportunistic. I've tried gettin' pics but the newest batch of fry in the wood pit are down in the wood pit so far it's impossible for me to capture.
The 1st batch of wigglers are now everywhere - eating like lil' piggys.

I'm curious to see how this is gonna pan out with 2 tribes of fry. The females have already drawn the battlelines - dead center of the tank.
The male has embrassed both sets of fry as a proud father, can he stop the 2 females from destroying each others babies or will the females embrass all the fry as 1 family ? Guess I'll find out.

As soon as I can get good shots of the fry I'll post'em it's an interesting storyline.
 
I think the Male will allow the larger fry from the first spawn to prey on the rival fish from the younger spawn.
