Hi y'all, so a few months back my Texas pair spawned and I've been growing out the fry with the parents in a 90g. They are currently around 2cm. Everything seemed to be going fine with regular feeding and regular water changes up until the past fortnight for which they randomly started to slowly drop dead with few at a time.
I can't explain what's going on or why they are starting to die. I recently successfully raised a batch of Red Devils to a nice 8cm now and I haven't done anything different. However, I have noticed that the Texas fry have started to hide more with some of them hanging around the corner surfaces. I haven't seen the parents chase or show any aggression either but they went from comfortably swimming freely to now being more skittish and hiding.
Has anyone ever had similar experience and maybe explain what is going on, or provide some helpful advice on what I should do. I moved around half of the fry into their own tank but the same things is happening with random deaths. This is my first time raising Texas and it's really stressing me out. I was hoping to raise them up and make a few sales.
