Ok so by my calendar my mouthbrooder's eggs should have hatched on dec 30th. she still isn't eating but I can't tell what's in her mouth for sure. I don't think she was holding many eggs to begin with as it was her first time breeding. How long before I should expect to see something? What should I do? Thanks..
 
Depends if you want to keep the fry or not?? Personally id leave her in the tank for her first few brood's, then if you do want to keep the fry on her at a later date(when she has bred a few times), remove her to her own set-up and let her release the fry naturally :). I use to do this on day 18 to 20, they usually brood the fry for roughly 21 to 25 day's.
