The pair of rams I removed from my 55 g community tank & put in their own 20 g tank w/potted plants & oak leaves (& lots of nice green algae!) have finally got a free-swimming brood! They'd been spawing in my 55g, but couldn't stand up to my aggies. I've only raised the young in the absence of parents (w/o too much success) in the past; it's fun to see Mom herding her charges around. The fry been free-swimming for a week, taking BBS and grazing in the algae (esp. the sponge filter).
So, how long does/can Mom stay in the tank? I had to remove Dad about 4 days ago 'cuz Mom was really wailing on him (after he did all the work guarding the eggs & wrigglers...).
