Fish Crazy
My situation-
In my 75 gallon I have 2 giant danios, 8 or 10 red eyed tetras, a neon dwarf rainbowfish, a pleco, 2 semi adult firemouths (not fully grown but breeding), 2 inchlong firemouths, a 4 inch pleco and a black ghost knife fish.
I have a 20 gallon with 3 platys. I was/am using this as a quar for the 75. The platys were bought from a store and have made it for almost 2 weeks with no problems. I am keeping them in the 20 to keep it cycled.
The eggs from the 2 larger firemouths are breaking open and I can see the very small free swimming fry. I would like very much to raise some of these if possible. Will the parents be able to protect the fry from all the other fish in my 75 or should I move the platys into the 75 and the fry into the 20? If so, should I move the parents as well, and at what point do I decide to move them?
Thank you for your help.
