Pike Food?

I think I am about to have a lot of babies!

Parachromis managuense
8" male guarding eggs

I have been watching the fish in this tank getting ready to spawn for the last week or so. They finally did yesterday.

Looks like we'll be seeing one of the "Mojo" fry shots coming from you Mike. :wink:

These are really cool fish. I brought two small ones back from Florida. Lurkers, like crappies, but with more attitude. Good luck with this spawning.

Well, all the eggs got fungus and are now gone. Not sure if they got fertilized. Will have to wait for round two.

Bummer. Better luck next time.
