Updates from today. These guys are growing like weeds. There are still 10 in there, despite only being able to capture 9 at any one time in a frame :)

Notice how many rosies are NOT left in there :D

exactly how big are they now?
theyre getting some good patterning...

Thanks.
The runt is about 2.5 inches and the others are all 3 inches + now :D
 
My guys aren't hitting rosies as hard as I'd like. I think I'm going to try guppies later today and, if I'm not satisfied, may go back to blackworms.

I'd stay away from the blackworms, but that's just me. Guppies should work best...remember, even though Cichla are large fish in general (even when young) they usually prefer small food items. So, what I am saying is that if you know your Cichla can eat guppies like tic-tacs then continue to feed them to it/them....smaller food items fed more frequently are better for your fish than large food items fed more sporadically. Just my 2 cents :D
 
great advise Brian. I think it makes complete sense, and is a good reason for me to stay with guppies for a while and then stay with rosies for a while and stat AWAY from goldfish
then again, I am trying to get a pair of costa Rican dovii and breed them for ultimate
