Apisto Fry

[tash]

Last week I saw the male go into the females cave. Since then she hasn't let anyone near it (even the male) and hasn't come out much, even to eat. This morning my husband said "wow, that little fish is chasing all the other fish to the other side of the tank". Turned out it was the male as well as the female chasing the tetras around (the male more). Then I looked in a little later and saw these:

I bought the parents (male in av) at the oct auction. They are Apistogamma Borilli Opal. I don't know if the fry will make it since they are in with tetras, corys, and a pleco. But the parents seem to be pretty vigilent so far.

Here is a bad shot of the female with the fry. The cave is in the end of the driftwood.

well the female and fry have moved away from the cave (but still along the driftwood). I saw one of the fry get eaten by a tetra

contemplating moving them.... but I don't really have anywhere except a fry trap....
