Red bishops are terrible parents, the worst troph parents without fail that I have experienced in 20 yrs of keeping them. “If” they hold to term, the group eats fry that are released into the tank

Wow, my Bemba at least wait until the fry are over an inch before they kill them. Just when they’re starting to look like a troph.
Just sold 31 RB fry to a bloke on Staten Island.
Big thanks to

for shipping for me. Great bloke & very generous w his time. Thank you Jason!
I have another 15-20 growing out & 2 more females holding. Will post in marketplace when they’re ready to fly
I stopped feeding super red color flakes (w 400ppm astaxanthanin) a ittle over 4 months ago. I feed Northfin veggie pellets exclusively now. Color still looks great, though I think they would pop better against a black background. One day I will get to that
