is there a male in the tank if no then i would just get rid of the eggs some cichlids like jags will do this from time to time if they don't get fertilized by a male they will just die and rot or grow fungus so its best just to remove them
My JD and Jag are showing their sex organs. How do you tell who is who (male/female) and if theyve been fertilized or not?
So should I take them out and put them in another tank or leave them. I keep hearing people say their fish ate their young.
goodluck let me know how it goes... most cichlids take care of their young... i dont know about hybrids
I have left my dovii fry in my tank for over a month now and they have been some of the best parents I have witnessed. Very protective. If you want you can leave half in the tank and take half out and put in a tank solely for them. But I recommend leaving them in there, the parents will take care of them, but then again I also don't know how hybrid parents are.
The jag is protecting the eggs well. Im just worried b/c I have 2 crays, 2CAE's a midas and a Lima in the tank also. But from what ive seen they dont have a chance. The jag is pretty fierce.
When your fish has fertilized eggs and/or fry the parents will make sure nothing comes close to the eggs or fry. Your jag will prob kill the 2 crays if they get too close but the midas could be a problem. How big are the jag and midas?
