breeding labeotropheus trewavasae mpanga Red

[Frontosapat]

I have breed these in the past and now i got a bigger pair that was holding.
i added 4 labeotropheus fuelleborni (OB) now they do the spawning stuff but i feed the tank and the females eat what should i do.

Ummm.... if the females eat then they dont have eggs.

not true... I have a few females that have learned to hold smaller amounts of eggs and eat early on... after the first few days they stop...

yup agree with the above, we have had females how suck a few tidbits while holding in the beginning...our dewindti female would eat and never show till near the end... a case of oh shoot she's eating again...so you dont pay her no mind for a few days again...and then? son of a gun she is still holding! lol
