Hoplarchus Psittacus Fry and Parents

[JK47]

awesome! wut do u feed the frys? and when did u start to feed 'em?

x2, I am curious on this one too. Looks like they are chowin down on a blood worm in the last pic, what did you feed them at first? Hoplarchus Psittacus are beautiful cichlids. I will be getting one from a freind in the coming weeks. I hope mine looks as good either of yours.

I started off feeding them frozen baby brine shrimp and frozen daphnia. I fed their parents frozen bloodworms and then the babies started going after them. Now they all eat frozen bloodworms and dried food.
