I was never aware of N. haitiensis letting fry feed of their slime coats.

Not just the slime coats, the babies were eating the flesh, scales, and fins of the parents. :(
 
man nice looking fish makes me wanna call rapps and get some
 
Aww too bad man :( That's terrible, and it's definately not a fish you see every day. 99% of the specimens people purchase probably don't even make it past 5 inches, makes me really sad to see such a wonderful specimen pass on like that.
 
I'm really sad to hear this m8, he was a beautiful specimen. Good luck raising a youngster to replace him! I'll be watching any babies I may eventually get for this destructive trait !!!
 
You lost a nice fish but at least u got a some fry to grow out when my devils first started spawning i had to remove my male for the same reason yours died those fry are like p'sand opened up a minor wound on his side it got infected but i cuaght it in time barly sorry for your loss better luck next time.
