Ho-ly Shit!!! I'm pretty sure I've got a fry of baby German Red Peacock cichlids...
That's tank alpha male just to the left.... I've got a pair of German Reds. Never in a million years thought they would get comfortable enough in the tank to spawn a fry within a matter of months. This is crazy. I thought the fish had been acting weird lately...
This species typically sells for ~$20-30 a piece as a young juvenile. An average fry is ~40-50 babies. No clue though how many are actually in the tank right now, considering this is the first time this female german red has laid eggs. But if I can catch it earlier next time, I can move the mom fish to a separate spot and collect all the babies. Something, something... Profit!
