Hi Guys,
So needing a bit of help.
I started with 6 5spot jewel cichlids a few months ago.
2 paired of within a week and have laid eggs 3 times so far.
Problems are, killing each other, there are 2 dominant males, and its terrible, they constantly fight.
So when they pair laid eggs recently I split them up, at this point I had 5 left, so I put 3 in a 50 ish us gallon, and left the 2 breeding with the eggs in the 65 ish us gallon.
Since this one of the dominant males killed another int he tank of 3 and left the other one pretty battered, so I have put a divider between the 2 meaning they have there own space. then to make things worse the eggs that were laid few days ago were all eaten and the male keeps chasing and biting the female who almost died.
I have put a divider in this tank to, so now have four of them all apart as its chaos.
Its really upsetting as I dunno what to do!!
Help me please!!
Thanks
