My GT's bred, now what?

[twhittle]

So I had a 7 inch female GT and someone gave me a 9 inch male. I put them by themselves in a 60 gallon and I found eggs. Will they have typical breeding behaviors like convicts or other cichlids? Will both the male and female be okay with the fry in there? For how long? Thanks.

they should be fine in there, especially alone , just watch your male for signs of hostility toward his lady and you should be good. if he starts being a d bag pull him.
but congrats not too many people breeding gt's , not that i know of anyways.
I have one female gt and when i got her she was just shredded , i dont know what the guy was housing her with but it obviouslly was nastier than she is , but now she is almost back to 100%, living with some severum juvies.
