Awesome, how old is the group

 

[everlastace]

They are 8-9 months. There are 5 of them and I got them all when they were 3/4 inch.

Cute, how they have the eggs in 2 little piles. wonder if they've already split custody. Lol.
mine always keep them in one big wad.

Thanks everyone!

They picked the eggs up that first night, as I've heard is normal, but the eggs never reappeared. This is my first time breeding geos so I'm not sure what's to be expected. Are they supposed to pick them up at night and put them back again or will they finish the brood in their mouths? Or did these first time parents call it quits for now?

i have 2 breeding pairs of Red Heads, each time they lay eggs mine seem to guard it but it never lasts overnight because all the other fish have a little snack. if they pick up the eggs the female is supposed to hold it until they hatch, isnt it?, why put it back and and pick them up again..??

Sorry, i have only seen my fish lay eggs but nothing more than that...
