New find at the LFS

[Redchamp]

$2 bucks each. About 5+ inches long each

I did not want to put them into my big tank so I put them in the 55 gal feeder tank I recently stood up. I will be putting some substrate in it sooner than I wanted now. I just could not pass these guys up.



This one is the Male

And here is the Female ( and her eggs )

Parents are cannabalistic

 

[Redchamp]

Anyone know what kind they are?


How long should I take the parents out of the tank? Or should I take them out?

Think the feeder goldfish will be an issue with them when they are small? Since they are in a feeder tank

Feeders might eat them. I'd remove the parents as soon as they release the young.
Not sure what species those are, but they are awesome.
