I moved my wild caught cons into a tank with a bunch of fish. They are usually the smallest. But in this tank, they are the biggest. I have a pair of pinks in the tank also. Right before I moved the wilds in, the pinks had just bred. They did not fertilize the eggs properly this time (they usually do just fine) and only 5 survived.....I noticed the wilds flaring at the pinks, and thought nothing of it. Then I noticed the wilds were "protecting" their pot, and immediately assumed they laid eggs. I go over and look, and they stole 4 out of the five pink fry....:ROFL::ROFL::ROFL::ROFL::headbang2:headbang2:headbang2

Funny adoption story!
 
thats funny, ive had fish take care of babies that were not theirs aswell, i used to have a pair of severums that would breed alot but the male was infertile and we never got babies from them, then one day after they had spawned i was in a lfs and they had some dime sized severums so we got 3 just to see if they would survive. the next morning i went to check on the tank and the female was protecting the babies:D it was pretty neat
