"Fry grew like hell"
It's just an American expression.Just means they grew/grow very fast.

Oww...ic, i thought that the pattern will become horrible lol...

I'd use all the babies as feeders.

i think he means that you should be careful with what you do with the fry, if you don't keep them all yourself it is a bad idea to sell them on the open market, if people end up spawning your hybrid fry to other severums it could pollute future bloodlines

Absolutely what a true cichlid person would do.

^ agreed. Maybe keep a couple for your own interest, but I doubt the young will be any more attractive than either pure rotkeil or pure efasciatus.

Exactly.

 

[David R]

Not that "severum" blood lines are exactly pure anyway, most "green severums" are mutts. Doesn't help putting more hybrids out there though.

 

[Younglin]

I own a FH so I'm kind of a hypocrite but I am against hybrids. Especially blood parrots.

 

[Dark_Angel]

Hmmm...seems so many pro-contra bout hybrid fish here ya...hehe...actually i also like pure blood species

Update the fries....only few that can survive into this size....
