A. Centrarchus and fry!!!

[japbart]

I got a wild caught pair from rapps and they spawned almost two weeks ago. I'm surprised that they're doing such a great job at parenting knowing that it's their first spawn. Heres a vid. I purposely made my tank grow algae for the fry.

Nice breeding colors on that pair.
I let algae grow like that in all my breeding tanks, the fry will graze and hang on the sides.
Because the fry seem to need to be constantly eating, its a great way to provide food, between regular feedings.
And its not just algae, if you take a scrape from the tank side, and smear it on a microscope slide, you'll find it's teaming micro and macro animals the fry can eat.

Thanks for the info! I didn't know that.

Are these related to cons?

Sorry if this is a retarded q, just curious.
