  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Wow that cool but how reliable is the source material? I am not doubting it but just questioning? I know this can be true though because my Jags just had fry and my Barred Midas who is mean as a MFK'er stole the jag fry and took care of them for a while. I mean like keep them away from filter intakes the surface of the water and all sorts of crap. Very interesting to see a monster mean fish caring for fry that isn't even his.

The source is absolutely reliable (McKay and others studying them in the wild in Nicaragua. Also, there is video of the relationship.
