I've never reared african cichlid fry before so I would like to know if theres any particular info I should be aware of, and how many times a day to feed them etc.
thanks a lot.

So feed them little amounts frequently that sounds fine thanks a lot cant009!
 
thanks Clownknife cant wait to see them get bigger
 
They look amazing and yes if you want them to grow fast try and set up a schedule of feeding and feed a few times a day in little mounts so its not for say fattening its far enough apart to let them process the food so they just bulk up and get bigger faster. If you want to increase growth do weekly tank changes about 25-35%, but that's not necessary that's only for speed growing lol
 
I feed my fry once a day and any kind of sinking pellet. They will take the bites they need. Its fun watching them and they grow so fast... hahaha
 
I feed my fry (yellow labs) either crushed up nls or crushed up spirulina flake about 2-3 times a day.

p.s nice fry their so cute they look just like adults just scaled down lol
