Now Nic grew a Nuchal hump!

Not sure what is going on with these guys. She let him back into her nest.

They seem to ignore the fry.They still have about 20 fry, but seem to be going through breeding rituals.

Does it seem like this is what the male is doing? He grew a nuchal hump overnight. Does not appear to be an injury. His head sort of looks squared off like a Gymno now LOL.

The saga continues

Maybe he is getting too large for the cave and bumped his head on the rock :lol:

Nicaraguans are one of my favourite Central Americans

Thanks for sharing

 

[minifoot77]

could be a fat storage spot how much are you feeding it?

 

[MonteSS]

They dont eat too much. Some Ken's flake in the am and a few medium Hikari Cichlid gold pelletsin the PM.

All seems well now but they are not very protective of the 20 or so fry.

I added 10 Buenos Aires Tetras today. I am not looking to keep fry, just dont want to break the great pair bond they have.

Thanks....Bill
