My Flowerhorns Successful Breeders!! Vid

[Blues14]

So, My flower horn finally layed some eggs and actually had success their first time! I siphoned up a few ( about 30 ) just in case they couldnt keep their young safe in my aggressive 180g community. The vid is off my phone..so not the best quality. The male is the larger with more red, female is of course the smaller with more defined black stripes. They had around 300, but my sneaky redtail black shark and tire track eels ate most of them. Parents did protect fiercly, even attacked the siphon...lol Feeding the fry Hikari First bites, they are eating well!

Here is a vid about 2 days after hatching
