Last night the fry became free swimming. Is it just me or do Parachromis have large fry in comparison to other cichlids like Midas and Festae?

Just regular river gravel as they call it at the LFS. I also mixed it with the Big natural gravel they sell at home depot. Make sure you wash that stuff well 'cause it is dirty!

Thanks! I don't have any full tank shots. They never come out looking good or complete as my lens is too magnified even at a minimum of 18mm. The tank isn't really decorated that well. It has alot of PVC pipe and pots to allow fish to hide (RTM female) in case there is aggression.
