It really is a joy watching the parents guard and care for the fry night and day, the male guards and the female only very rarely leaves the wrigglers side.

They are in a 63g with JD's at about 2 inches and some red eye tetras and plattys for dithers, they are very well behaved in comparison to some of the story's you hear and only chase away the JD's if they come to near, no physical contact though! They don't even bother the dithers.

The mother seems to move them all in to a pile and trys to keep them there, regularly moving them with her mouth, was a bit of a shock the first time, I thought she was eating them!!

Any way here are some bad pics and video, need better equipment if I'm going to continue to capture them on film :D
