They should spawn every two three months.

in normal conditions how often do they spawn?


It is healthy to spawn BIG cichlids once a month.....Then give another month off to condition them with proper food and rest......It is possible to spawn them twice a month.......To this, you must remove the pair from the eggs right after hatching.......OR, just wait untill the eggs hatch and siphon the fry right away into a growout.......The pair should think they know their spawn is gone within a week or two and start breeding again........
 
that could be why because i usually remove them. but they have spawned 4 times in like a month and a half. seriously their last babies are not even a half inch yet and they just had like 450 more. i just didnt know if it was normal for them to spawn like convicts haha
