Found babies in my sump a couple of times!
well thats why i am saying this...always check....then clean...you just never know...:D i am happy..9 venustus babies...
 
I've found misc cichlids in both my sump and xp3 filters. The on that gets me is the baby bristlenoses that make it into the penguin biowheel filters.

View attachment 352890Check all your filters when you clean...before you clean it ...check for fry..if you have a community tank with females holding and then you never see the babies...check the filter... because that is their refuge from being eaten..so before you discard ...check...look at all these filter babies...n.venustus.... :)
OH MY GOD!!!!! I thought i was the only one,about 6 months ago i was cleaning one of my filters i find 4 fry's in there,but they were smaller than the same fry's in my tank.....LOL!!! :D
