First labidochromis (yellow lab) frye!

[Mannymdhttr]

Not trying to get into breeding but my yellow labs keep breeding like crazy! First time, left the holding female in the community tank and 1 survived (that's the larger one). Second time, stripped the female after about 3 weeks and the frye didn't have any more yolk sacs. Decided to put them in my 2ft tank and let them grow out. Now 2 more females are holding (heavy eye roll). Any suggestions on what to do with the extra fish in time??? Thx...

I think they are very cute, I had same same issue with Mollie and cichlid fry and I gave away as many as I could then took the rest to the LFS and they gave me fish food. I currently have 13 platy fry in a 29 gallon fry tank and when they get bigger I have two people lined up already to take a few. Currently there is a fish shortage at the LFS too so I am sure they will be happy to take any extra that I can not give away. You should maybe check with your LFS. Good luck.
