my fh laid eggs today

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
well first spawn didnt work, second one i took the fry out when they were free swiming and they died they by day i have only 3 fry from this second spawn, and this last weekend i was not home came back monday i saw they laid eggs again and now all fry swiming with their mom, i took the male out, so how long can i keep the fry with mom?
 
i always removed the mom/father from my ca/sa spawns at .5 inches
idk about FH's tho, id worry about seperating the fry so they dont kill each other off
 
you can sometimes keep them with their parents until they are a few inches long... i only keep mine with the parents until they're eating flake food and other "easy to feed" food though, because last time i left the babies for too long, they started trying to eat the mom alive... D:
 
i had 3 batch last one hatched at thxgiving day, other 2 batch didnt go tht good one had only 2 survive and other one i have 6 only, this time its bingo i took all the little wiggels and there is over 300 of them,
 
the parents only eat the fry if they don't have the experience for breeding, normally the male will take of the fry until they old enough to live on their own !
 
i took the last bacth out, ithey r in 10 galon now and tons of swiming little guys, also other ones from last 2 batch 2 and 6 groving good, biggest ones getting colors on them but still too young to show pictures
